Why should they be required to say anything? I'd want to distance myself as much as possible.

Not required to, but it would be nice and decent of them to.

Silence is saying something, and that message is NOT "I want to distance myself."

Boreanaz I would be more surprised if he said anything because he's a piece of shit too

He actually did end up saying something. Still a piece of shit, though.

What did he do? That's the first time I've heard of him "being a piece of shit".

Had an affair, treated his wife really badly, and then claimed the affair was good for his marriage.

If you're interested, one of his JO videos is streaming.

Sorry, what?

David Boreanaz JO video leaked a couple of days ago. Unless it's an old one that popped back onto the web again. I have the Streamable link if you want it.

Why is DB a POS, sorry? Think this one has passed me by.

Cheated on his pregnant wife, was sued for sexual harassment (settled out of court)

DB did say something. And Charisma replied to him implying he’d already reached out to her personally.

If they don't have anything to say, then they're doing good by staying silent. "I never witnessed any of this personally," is discrediting to the people making accusations, even if it's just the truth.

If I was in a position where I'd worked on a project and hadn't been aware of any misconduct, or had only been aware of minor bad behavior I felt was not worthy of being called out, then I would keep my mouth shut on the issue.

They could say, just for instance, 'I never witnessed any of this personally but I fully believe my coworkers'

If they never witnessed any of it personally, they may not fully believe their coworkers. They may be unsure what to believe, and they don't want to shoot their mouth off about something they have no personal knowledge about.

There's so much we're not privy to. We barely know these people, and we barely know anything about their relationships with each other.

I think I prefer people talking to the person who was harmed and then getting the go ahead from them to speak up. I mostly like this because while public support is good, I don't think it's good to create a culture where support on something unrelated to you (or even something you experience and there are expected to go back into to support someone else) must be given or your intentions are automatically bad.

That said, AH and AD are godparents to Whedon's kids. I don't need a public statement from her, she undoubtedly already knows who Whedon is and doesn't care.

Or she didn't know. Why should AH be omniscient? On a different scale entirely, but nobody expected the other Lost Prophets members to know what was going on, and they were all best mates.

I have seen in action how people like Joss Whedon will be very careful in keeping their shitty behaviour from the people who aren't their victims.

I don't know what you've seen personally, but from everything people have heard about Whedon and his buffy set, he personally was not trying to keep his shittiness hidden on that set (or the JL set). And AH very much liked the type of shittiness he promoted because she benefited. Like, of the things we the pubic have heard before Charisma said anything...those are the two things. So, there's no reason to believe she was either omniscient or ignorant.

If a female is not commenting on these type of accusations, I often infer that they were also probably a victim themselves and have repressed it or tried to forget about it, and do not wish to acknowledge it happened.

Sure, it looks bad, but not all people work on the same wavelength. Just because someone hasn't publicly posted about the accusations, doesn't mean they haven't reached out in private, like Boreanaz, or have personal reasons for not commenting on it publicly.

I think Hannigan is smart to keep her mouth shut. Since she, Denisof, and Acker were some of Joss's pets, it feels like any attempt to speak out against him would have to be VERY carefully worded to keep from being disingenuous.

amy did say something.

She threaded that needle very carefully. Good for her for speaking in support of the others.

not sure why you had to diminish how sarah said what she did when your problem seems to be with these two, but agreed.
