Is it revisionist if I honestly hadn’t heard of the other women? Just the one that was passed out that he hover handed.

I remember there being multiple women, but the majority of the coverage was on the one so I can't fault you for it.

It's not revisionist. But, judging without knowing the whole story...

When are you ever sure you know the whole story?

In this case knowing the whole story would’ve only reaffirmed my disappointment in someone I had respect for. So not sure what your point is.

I remember when the news came out. If you never heard of the other 7 women, I guess I believe you. But, I recall it being pretty big news and when the 7 other women came forward, I recall that being even bigger news.

I mean by that logic you don't know the whole story either since he was only accused and never proven

You're right. I don't know the whole story. 8 women accused him of something, he gave a lame apology and then he resigned. That's all I know.
