"This was a recklessly irresponsible piece of sensational journalism of the worst kind," Wigney said of two articles published about Rush in 2017.

Yikes! Newspapers need to be held responsible for the damage they can do to a person's life and reputation. Make sure you have the facts straight before you decide to publish a juicy article that could destroy someone's life. That said she still maintains he did something so maybe he did but it sounds like not exactly what the paper accused him of.

I don't know. What did he do exactly? Natalie Portman calls him creepy and now he's a perv? I don't think this episode really fits in this thread unless there are more details released.

Thats all it takes.
Although strangely in Moby's case I'm inclined to believe it.
Eminem doesnt like him and if theres anything we can cling to with certainty in this topsy-turvy world of fluctuating oil prices, faux-environmentalism and arbitrary moral compasses its that Eminem is a fairly solid judge of character.
Most of the time.
Okay, some of the time.

Maybe I have it backwards, but didn't some other artist troll Eminem at an award show?

He's a perv because he misinterpreted a friendship with an extremely attractive younger actress? WTF is going on here. Wasn't she 18?
EDIT: He was 33, she was 20.....yeah what a creep? Is this all it takes now?

She claims she was 18 and felt creeped out, not dating. Quite a difference.
In any case, none of that matters compared to what he actually admitted in his book.
As a dare, he casually pulled out his dick at a business party and intentionally rubbed it against unknowing attendees. That's by his own admission.

He's a perv, we don't need to worry. Well unless you somehow end up in a room with the creep.

I think that saying you dated someone when you were just creeping on a teenage fan is more than just misinterpreting.
seems like he just lied in his memoirs to impress and make himself seem more interesting. considering his response to Portman's declarations, I think he knows he was caught out.
