Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

everybody likes that
Other than a bunch of his co-stars on that 70s show.
The actress that played Kitty Foreman was so impressed that he made the other teenaged stars make a pact to stay away from weed that she's willing to forgive a little rape. Which also checks out for the type of person he seems to be: very vocally "good" but a real piece of shit behind closed doors. It's all PR.
The actor that played Red Foreman thinks someone taking a leadership role amongst the group should forgive a bit of rape. Makes me wonder if it was more of a fucked up dynamic because that also fits the type that I've seen, but there was also a lot of money and a contract keeping them together, which gives that type power.
Though Jackie and Micheal (can't remember what the rest of them called him) also thought his rape wasn't that bad.
I can't find any evidence that Topher Grace (Eric), Laura Prepon (Donna), or Wilmer Valderrama (Fez) ever supported him after the allegations came out. I wonder if they appreciated his "leadership" as much as the old ones did or started to see through him while they were still filming the show.
there is a whole IMDB website of actors who still support Masterson. Kutcher and Kunis top of that list. They never mention any victim.

Well that's disappointing. No more from 70s show but Tara from walking dead and Francis from Malcolm in the Middle are on that list (and have the same last name, siblings/cousins?, plus another one that was on 40 year old virgin).
Don't really recognise anyone else from the list, though not really surprised he has the support of a producer from 2 and a half men.
They are siblings yeah
They are called narcissist and sociopaths. Who use 'morals' to hide their immorality.
Either way, they are hilarious when they try to virtue signal to you using something you don't even see as a virtue. Religion is a pretty common one (though he's scientologist, which hits a bit differently and is probably why he depended on the next one...), along with support following various controversial laws (like "weed is illegal thus bad" in this case).
Wasn't Donna dating him for a while and she was in the same cult he was?
All I know was that I wasn't able to find any public statements she made in support of him regarding the rape charges or sentencing.
But I did find information saying she quietly left scientology a while ago (and later talked about it) and that she dated Chris Masterson (who played Francis on Malcolm in the Middle and is on that IMDB list of Danny supporters), not Danny, though Danny did introduce her to Scientology.
