What really needs to happen to clean out Hollywood is for people who are knows about the “everybody knows” open secret perverts start to refuse to hire them or work with them over concerns that a revelation will shut down their own productions and paychecks. They obviously don’t care about the morality but when people like Andy Dick and Kevin Spacey end up as a bigger liability than any name recognition they might bring at that point the shunning will happen.

They don’t mind what he did. They just don’t like that he admitted it to the general public.

Bingo.

The elephant everyone's ignoring is that a 26-year-old (as he was) homosexual man's trying to force/pressure/lure/persuade a 14-year-old boy is the NORM. It's what homosexual men do: go after adolescent boys for sex.

There was an amazing scene to open the season where his motorcade drives to the cemetery and he gets out and pisses on his father’s grave. I figured there was some reality tv behind that move.

I’m SHOCKED that liberals have actually found a perversion or evil too far for them.

This just came too early. Pedophilia is the next step and they are in the very early stages of doing for it what they did for homosexuality. Homo activist Dan Savage (a more loathesome person would be hard to find) had said in a speech a couple of years ago that pedophilia wasn't necessarily bad as long as you don't act on it (step one, it's natural and they can't help their feelings so don't judge). But even he put out a tweet about how aghast he was with Spacey. It wasn't about the morality, it was about knowing it's too soon right now.

Worse, he said he now “chooses” to live as a gay man. Remember, you can “choose” to be a man or a woman, but being gay is genetic.

You obviously don't watch the show...it's about the President of the United States...Kevin Spacey plays the POTUS...kinda though to “write him out off” the show!

Am I permitted to say that this stuff is getting kind of...wacky? The accuser was talking about something that was supposed to have happened thirty years ago; Spacey says he doesn't recall the incident, but that he's sorry if it did happen; production on Spacey’s current show is suspended halfway through an entire season. What if Spacey had responded, “This never happened”? Just saying we should all brace ourselves for a world in which there are no more criminal or civil trials.

One of the “open secrets” alleged on some blogs is that Spacey aggressively propositioned young actors and crew members on the HOC set. Now they are finally getting around to suspending production to do something about it. Its sad and disgusting that it takes publicity for Netflix executives (or whoever produces HOC) to do something they should have done a while ago.

Is he the only character on the show?

The cast and storyline is so strong they could write FU out of the script and make it work.

There are no criminal or civil trials at work. You take home some cash belonging to the company, say you were drunk, you apologize, younthought it was your can still fire you.

There was a gay guy on Tucker Carlson last night who had the guts to admit the REAL reason Hollywood turned on Kevin Spacey. He said, “Look, Tucker, don’t kid yourself. If Spacey had been a ‘good gay’ all these years, being out of the closet and going to GLAAD Awards dinners, the Hollywood community, including the gays, would be backing Kevin Spacey and trying to destroy this relatively unknown accuser. However, Spacey has always kept his private life, well, private. So, the gays are angry about that, and now they’re embarrassed that he’s using his ‘coming out’ to deflect from these accusations.” Exactamundo. If Spacey had already been “out”, this story would be playing out very differently. His only sin was having declined to broadcast his homosexuality until he needed to use it as a shield.

Look at poor McGreevey’s father in this photo. I recall thinking at the time that the guy obviously wanted to die up there, that he probably only was up there to support his daughter-in-law.

I haven't seen the show, but how about keeping the character and replacing Spacey with James Woods? ;-)

I have no sympathy for the guy. He should have stayed home rather than standing up there making an @ss of himself on national television.

The dirty little secret in New Jersey was that everyone connected to McGreevey knew his story for years, but actively took steps to cover it up and hide it from the public. That includes family members, too.

Spacey is just one of many Pedo’s in Hollywood.
Expose them and send them to jail.

In the British version that is exactly what happens and how they ended the show in it’s third season.
