Who are some major figures who would be cancelled if they were around today?

I would like someone to note someone who was truly cancelled who didn't deserve it. Seriously...name one.

So Franken shouldn't have been cancelled.

great twist!

I'm struggling to think of one—in modern times.

In olden days all sorts of people were blacklisted undeservedly—look at McCarthy!

Yes he did. Sexually harassed me for months but thankfully I didn’t have to join the parade. Totally swarmy, short bad guy. Well versed in use of power dynamics to his advantage.

Your crime has to be pretty bad to not get a redemption tour.

I was looking at upcoming comedy shows and both Louis CK and Chris Delia are touring. Mel Gibson is in movies again.

And when the "crime" is dubious (Ansari, Gunn, Takei, Lowe), the initial furor wears off and things resume as normal.

Al Franken

+1. I thought Al Franken too as soon as I read that.

You know so very little about what you speak of.

JFK and Bill Clinton

I'm not saying these people deserve cancelling, but they could have been:

Winona Ryder (shoplifting)

Reese Witherspoon (drunken tirade)

Alec Baldwin (verbal abuse toward daughter)

Kanye (I don't think he's totally cancelled)

Oprah (various reasons, including the girls' school)

Barbra Walters (cruel interview of Britney Spears, among others)

Notwithstanding the slant around here, old Joe Biden. A handsy pervert from days of yore. Learned at the feet of one of the all time great handsy perverts, Strom Thurmond. Take it down Big Brother but it’s still true however hard the delete button is pressed.
