    Bullshit headline. Brooks is at a dinner with one of the Google founders. If Brooks was “hanging with Epstein” we’d likely see a photo of it?

    Brooks just said on PBS Newshour that he didn’t know who Epstein was at the time of the dinner in 2011 and had zero comms with him. I’m going to take that at face value until there’s actual evidence presented, which is not contained in this article.

    I’m glad the Epstein files are getting released but it’s inevitable that there will be shade on those named who literally have nothing to do with sex trafficking.

        They fucked up. They admitted it. They apologized. And they paid her legal fees.

        The real rags are the ones that fuck up and don’t even issue corrections or admit wrongdoing

        I’m no native englisher, but doesn’t “hanging” here imply “having been hanged” rather than, what I suspect was intended - “hanging out”?
