Jill Dillard: "They're used to exploiting women."
In an interview with Fox News host Megyn Kelly that ran on Friday, two of the Duggar daughters who were victims of their brother’s inappropriate sexual touching called out the magazine that illegally released the records that not only revealed the identity of their brother Josh (who was a juvenile at the time), but also indirectly identified the victims.
Jill Dillard, the second daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, told Kelly that she suspected there might be an agenda behind the story. “I mean, I know that the tabloids that released this, even have you know, theyre used to exploiting women. They have the parent company –”
Well, Bauer…theyre a major porn provider…” her sister Jessa Seewald interrupted.
“So I dont know if they are maybe their mindset, theyre just used to making objects out of women and maybe we just didnt seem any different,” Seewald continued.
Jill and Jessa are members of the conservative Christian family that has been featured in the reality TV series 19 Kids and Counting, and the young women are spot on about the background of the company that publishes In Touch magazine.
Bauer Media Group, based in Hamburg, Germany, publishes 600 magazines, over 400 digital products, and 50 radio and TV stations around the world, including In Touch magazine, the publication that uncovered the story of the abuse in the Duggar home. They also traffic in porn — some of it Nazi-themed., as you’ll see on the next page.
The Wrap reported in 2013:
But an investigation by TheWrap has found that there is a darker side to the privately held company, including publication of at least one magazine appealing to neo-Nazis, as well as significant involvement in the distribution of pornography including Nazi-themed porn movies.
These lend perspective to Bauers legal woes in the United States, including a $50 million defamation lawsuit by Tom Cruise, filed last October after two U.S.-based publications alleged hed abandoned his daughter Suri. In fact, Bauer generates dozens of legal complaints worldwide each year about invasion of privacy or libel, according to a lawyer who has frequently opposed them.
The Duggar sisters are absolutely correct. In Touch and Bauer Media Group make money, in part, by exploiting women and trafficking in content that sexually objectifies women. The young women in the Duggar family who were victims of sexual abuse by their brother were victimized a second time by a magazine that treated them, not as accidental collateral damage in their honest efforts to report a legitimate news story, but as an integral part of a business model based on sexual exploitation of women. They exploited the sexual abuse suffered by the Duggar sisters for money, pure and simple. And they’ve done it with countless other women over the years. Disgusting.
Yup, that's what you get for inviting that dungaree wearing, short non-home-permed hair having, non-Gothardist hussy cousin Amy coming by and tempting that wholesome Josh.
What other outlet could he possibly have?
14 year olds may get God’s forgiveness just like any other sinners, but there should still be societal punishment. At that age you know right from wrong and any teenager that commits acts like that should be charged as adults——which frequently happens in murder cases.
I feel ya. I’ve seen so much pure wrong in IFB’s I could cry.
I love my current pastor though. He was raised Catholic but got saved when he was 25, spent about ten more years as a successful contractor while supporting his family and going to school at night.
The church isn’t big or big on “standards” and it doesn’t major on the minors.
The pastor encourages the other men in the church to preach also and they get together and study a book of the bible and then every Wed. the men take turns preaching.
How do they treat the women?
Did Bill Clinton get oral sex from a five year old? I mean, even Billy Graham would have a hard time excusing that.
They are nice to me. But I tend to stay on the periphery because while I like my pastor a lot I don’t really trust people as a whole. But I’ve never heard any denigration of women there. No freak outs over “modesty” a la Paul Chapell.
If you wish, I can cite cases where people 13-16 years old who were suspected of sexual assault were charge as adults?
That’s good to hear. When they start in on the women the trouble begins. If you see any of that please get out.
Oh look, the JV squad has shown up.
Mind your checklist, rookie. You left all sorts of filthy accusations out. You wanna make the big bucks, you're gonna have to show you're worth the money.
Now go on, I'll give you a second chance. Ask around, get some advice, and then really let out some vomit with your next post. Make your bosses stand up and take notice. Demonstrate some initiative - you can do it if you put your mind to it.
Earn your star.
You got a problem with the testimony of his victims, who are his sisters? You think they don't know their own hearts and minds about whether they healed, and whether he was sincere? You have a problem with women being trustworthy and competent?
Because it sure seems like you do.
I think their hearts and minds are more focused on their Jill and Jessa Duggar holy spinoff show.
And whether they’ll get a half hour or whole hour at showing the viewing public how trustworthy and competent they are.
Generally speaking Christians have compassion for victims. NOT one shred of compassion for these victims by the 'GET the Duggars' now crowd. And if that makes me holier than thou in your view so be it!.
bjClinton drug this nation and its children through the sex gutter. How old was Josh Duggar during clintonsim administration of sex? Yet the Reverend Billy Graham cult followers told me that Jesus said 'love the sinner, hate the sin'. I just do not understand why this same bunch are not out there demanding the same of the acts of a 14 year old that confessed....
Further I am sick of the outright LIES, spewed by the GET Duggars NOW bullies and creeps. To disagree with your crew means one is defending the crimes committed. A LIE.
Bingo!
Add #3 and you have a trifecta!
...This subject is dividing Freepers right before an election.
Sending a state trooper to escort a young gal to a room, for the purpose of servicing himself, might as well had been a five year old. Billy Graham was a liberal democrat and he did in fact excuse the old pervert. That was in Arkansas before old bjclinton seduced a nation.
>> Huh. You call this “genuine sorrow”? Josh Duggar jokes about incest
> You got a problem with the testimony of his victims, who are his sisters?
I have nothing but compassion for his sisters brought up in a woman-hating cult masquerading as Christianity. Of course they would defend Josh — they’ve been programmed to think it was their fault.

BTW, did you even watch the video?

It’s quite clear Josh does not feel genuine sorrow for his actions, or he would not feel free to joke like that about incest. But on many levels I have compassion for Josh as well. I place blame squarely on Jim Bob and Michelle, who consistently sought to cover up Josh’s actions, decided to avoid getting real professional help for Josh and his young victims (oh, right, the LEO they had give Josh a “talking to” ended up 40 years in jail for child pornography), and making the decision to profit off their children by putting them all on TV.
You’re obviously comfortable with excusing Jim Bob and Michelle for criminally covering up sexual assault, failing to remedy the situation or protect their daughters, and claiming to be Christian. That’s on you.
Absatively posolutely
Wow, you really are obsessed with this Bill Clinton.
I don't know if you could get a police escorted hooker, but would you settle for a hooker dressed as a cop?
Like I said is that you bjClinton?
