Ben: So does this story have special purchase because we live in an era when plutocrats control an increasing share of wealth, influence, political power, and all the rest?Ben: Right, we haven’t yet touched on the conspiracy theories this may or may not overlap with. Ed: And without question, there’s less tolerance of the, er, Lolita syndrome of older men preying on teenage girls.
Margaret: He already basically got away with it, and is now recaught, and there are all these guys tied up in it, but it just didn’t matter at the time.
