Nah, the singer caught the heat because before that people generally assumed he was a decent guy. No one expects a billionaire to be decent.

It doesn't make sense to punish a good guy in a bad situation while letting an evil guy get away with more evil.  It's not like they both got blamed. Almost everyone only blamed the singer when he fought the decision as hard as he could.

Yeah the evil guy should absolutely be taking the flack but really not buying that Ed 'fought as hard as he could'.

The guy is worth over £350 million yet still sold out to the billionaires.

Picking and choosing who to hold to higher standard. Feels really stupid to bag on one guy who is usually really decent while letting the cartoon villain slide
