I promise I’m trying not to harp on this, but CK released a statement today-
On it’s face I have to say this is… pretty easily the best public apology I’ve seen from anyone trying to make statements about past horrible actions. He doesn’t absolve himself, apologizes, confirms the story, confirms the abuse of power… it’s pretty telling.
That being said, I’m biased because… well, I want CK to be an earnest guy that’s made mistakes.
My only qualms about it is that right now we don’t have any stories after 09, which means one of three things.
- He had a come to jesus moment and quit being an ■■■■■■■.
- He was starting to get big and a publicist told him to quit being an ■■■■■■■.
- He got more power and knew no one after that time would say anything because he was a powerful ■■■■■■■.
Time will tell which of those is true, but… it was a solid statement.
Edit: It’s worth noting that he had previously denied the rumors that I discussed earlier too so… yeah. Really. Time will tell.
