That is horrendous!

I saw that tweet with his pic on the left in the link @Sprite posted. I remember thinking another long haired guy, must be in the script to cast at least one with long hair. No wonder I couldn't find any tweets, I knew they were deleted because I saw them, I just didn't know why.

I'm glad she finally spoke out.

I'm sorry if it offends anyone, but I find it completely silly all the way around. JMHO.....

How are we supposed to find out about something that’s never been reported??? #TheProposal

For the record, I am horrified that any of these abusive assholes are on our shows. We are working very hard to find ways to do better.

He's acting surprised please... he/they should do better research and background checks.

Not that I actually want to defend MF...pig that he is...but, in this case he is correct. How is he supposed to know about something where there is no record? This isn't like the Lincoln situation where someone was charged, but had not yet gone to trial. This is a situation that only came to light when the woman...and apparently later more women...saw this creep on previews for the show.


That said, they definitely should do better research and background checks. I would think that all the psych testing they do would be helpful with stuff like this...although I don't doubt they use this to pick people for drama rather than to weed out the psychos.

IA with @Sprite on this case. What I don’t get is why these guys go on national tv knowing that someone is bound to out them?

Ah yeah I get what you both said. I read ABC is going to pull the episode he is in.

I really don't know, but maybe they are so confident that they feel safe and/or above the law? Maybe they are thrill seekers and this is a way of upping the ante/danger/thrill? Maybe they are subconsciously looking to get caught?


Who knows, but either way this stuff makes my skin crawl.

God, I can't believe that this keeps happening. When I first read about this, I was horrified and sickened. Those poor girls. This motherf***** should be behind bars, period. Honestly, I don't believe a word that comes out Fleiss' slimy mouth anymore. Because we all know that TPTB don't give a crap about any of the contestants or their well-being. If they did, then they would actually make an effort to properly vet these people and weed out the bad seeds. They need to nip this in the bud now, before it's too late. One of these days, something really bad is probably going to end up happening (something they won't be able to recover from) and that's when the franchise will end.

These guys are either that narcissistic/arrogant or that stupid. I'm going with all of the above.

The Lincoln situation is inexcusable but Fleiss is right about the guy from the Proposal. Unless there was a written record of what this guy did, there wouldn't be any reason for the show to think he couldn't be on the show. That being said they need to put a better vetting system in place for casting the next seasons of these shows.
