Följer inte denna serie men gillar Spacey. Tycker det är konstigt att ett uttalande om 'sexuella närmanden' kan få dem att stänga ner en framgångsrik serie... Det måste finnas mer bakom.
Det har framkommit flera saker sista dagarna och mer lär komma.

Kevin Spacey has been accused of sexual misconduct by multiple current and former employees of the TV show House of Cards, as the scandal surrounding the actor continues to grow.
Allegations against Spacey include one claim of sexual assault made by a former crew member on the Netflix drama, according to a report by CNN. Other employees on the series said he had created a “toxic” work environment on set through his behaviour.
CNN said that in total eight people had spoken to it about Spacey’s alleged conduct. The news network said that the individuals, who were all former or current employees on the show, had done so on the condition of anonymity, fearing “professional repercussions” if they made their claims public.
All of those involved described Spacey’s behaviour as “predatory”. It allegedly included non-consensual touching and inappropriate sexual comments, with the actor typically targeting young, male members of the production crew.
Netflix suspended filming of House of Cards’ sixth and final season last week in the wake of allegations made by actor Anthony Rapp, who said that Spacey had made sexual advances towards him at a party in 1985, when Rapp was 14 years old. The claims were soon followed by accounts of alleged misconduct towards several other men, including film-maker Tony Montana and British barman Daniel Beal.
Another alleged victim of harassment by Spacey, the Mexican actor Roberto Cavazos, said that the actor had preyed on multiple men while he was artistic director of the Old Vic in London. That account was supported by several other accounts in the Guardian from actors and former staff at the theatre, who claimed that Spacey’s inappropriate behaviour was widely known, and that the theatre had turned a blind eye to it.
The allegations against Spacey have continued to take a toll on his professional activities. On Thursday, both Spacey’s publicist, Staci Wolfe, and his talent representative Creative Artists Agency, told Deadline that they would not longer be working for the actor, while the Dutch bank ING announced on Friday that it had cancelled a planned appearance by Spacey at a business conference it was organising in Rotterdam.
Men skulle man gräva såhär på alla skådespelare lär de nog få stänga ner Hollywood.
Säger inte att det är rätt men om de hänger ut han kan de ta resten också.
