Something I’ll never forget: Jim DeRogatis explaining to Jessica Hopper that many R. Kelly supporters weren’t willfully blind to the allegations of how the singer was abusing women. He argued that they *knew* he was abusing those women and it made his music all the more thrilling for them.
i recently watched ZONE OF INTEREST and one of the things i think some of the reviews get wrong is that they posit the film as depicting willful blindness to atrocity but i think it is a film about how wanton cruelty can be, for some, constitutive of what they see as prosperity

I have long thought that music journalism was ethically the weakest subdiscipline, but I think we would be better off more "hard" journalism writers were as willing to sacrifice audience and access as, for example, Jim DeRogatis, the sole music journalist willing to pursue the R Kelly story...

I just never stop thinking about what Jim DeRogatis said about his struggle to get people, including "good" white liberals, to care about R. Kelly's crimes.
He said he learned the hard way how little people care about Black women, who were the victims. And it guts me how right he is.

"The Kelly and Epstein cases are Exhibits A and B in how secrecy protects predators, not their victims," @seth-stern.bsky.social and Jim DeRogatis write in @columjournreview.bsky.social.
Without journalists and their reporting, "Epstein and Kelly would likely still be preying on young girls."
Without journalists and their reporting, "Epstein and Kelly would likely still be preying on young girls."
Transparency didn't delay justice for R. Kelly or Jeffrey Epstein. Prosecutors did.
From Epstein’s inoculating friendships with the rich and powerful to lax law enforcement and a politicized Justice Department, the systems that should have protected his victims failed time and again....
