terry richardson

idk, idk. Plenty of comments below the article itself that would seem to contradict that but perhaps that's to be expected.

tbf there were rumors ahead of time that NYmag was working on something 100% in his defense and what they actually ran was pretty warts and all beyond the quotes TR gave, and in a way it's more damning for that stuff to appear in a piece that he cooperated with and was interviewed for.

Hah I didn't know his dad was also a famous fashion photog

That Dame mag piece is just weird. The prima facie idiocy of the "other side of the story" is all the more damning. It would be a less effective takedown without the stuff from the Richardson camp.

Yeah, the details about his dad are the only new parts of this for me (and that he took up with 17-year-old Anjelica Houston when TR was a kid).

On the one hand, Gavin Mcinnes liked the piece. On the other hand, Ross douthat was opposed.

for an overly balanced article it seems to have made people universally grossed out by terry richardson, so... maybe it's not overly balanced?
like you might as well show 'both sides of the story' if one is clearly super damning and then your point is made. maybe I'm misreading though.

Yeah this was my line of thinking. I don't need the writer to hold my hand on whose quotes are dumb and whose aren't when it seems self evident to me

Just wait until you see the subsequent photos in that series.
