In a final videotaped message, echoes of the sexism, insecurity and entitlement that plague Hollywood: http://t.co/gR5pmR4c4x

.@AnnHornaday I find your article horribly insulting and misinformed.

.@AnnHornaday how dare you imply that me getting girls in movies caused a lunatic to go on a rampage.

GIRLS ARE NOT A THING YOU GET They’re not a goody bag at the end of the frat party. http://t.co/SiMuyOaVJc

.@jessicagolds you realize I was using Ann's words when I said that, right? She's the one who said "get the girl." I was quoting her.

Some columns get more reactions than others. One of mine just did. A sampling: http://t.co/3f4fuzf3xy

“@Sethrogen: .@AnnHornaday I find your article horribly insulting and misinformed.”She uses tragedy to promote herself with idiotic thoughts

Nice "fearless political journalism" - “@Salon: Watch: This video of otters playing the piano will warm your heart http://t.co/g7aH3WjaAW”

It's way easier to blame art than to blame a fundamental lack in mental health, education & gun control @Sethrogen @JuddApatow @annhornaday

This is a very thoughtful article: http://t.co/yjG2aZrSkV

So, just to summarize: Seth Rogen, Judd Apatow, Sarah Silverman, Huffington Post, and Sammy are on the right side of this. Ann Hornaday, Jessica Golds, and Salon are not. They are just not moral people. It's all very interesting, though.
People love to write easy articles like that. Hollywood and movies and TV have been getting the blame for years. If a few go askew and do something horrible, blaming Hollywood is easy. But if millions don't, and you are putting all the responsibility on Hollywood, then shouldn't they then get kudos for all the people they've set on the right path? Sadly,life isn't so black and white. Many circumstances came into play with this person's decisions. The internet has m a Dr people's opinions in journalism and it shouldn't be so easy.
