I think some folks are defensive because they like Louis C.K.'s work. I personally don't see anything wrong with liking an artist's work but still acknowledging that they are a terrible human being. I love Woody Allen's film's (particularly his output between 1977 to around 1995) and his personal transgressions will not make me love his movies any less. History is full of great artists who were #######s in real life. If the world only accepted the creative works of morally upstanding people, it would be a pretty boring world.
