Sexual Misconduct

Sexual misconduct is inappropriate no matter who you are. I don't care how rich or powerful you are, and I don't care how good of a movie you made, you don't have license to engage in sexual misconduct. I do think a fair trial is necessary for sex offenders before punishing them with anything, including being fired. Not because I don't believe the accusers, but because a fair trial is necessary for every crime, and this should be treated as an actual crime, not as something taboo that at best ge ts you fired or gets you 3 months in prison as a warning to others. Are there some flaws in a fair trial? Yes. A jury might declare a guilty person to be innocent or declare an innocent person to be guilty. A fair trial might give too light a sentence, though I'm not sure I would consider that a fair trial. But I think it would frequently give people the punishment they deserve instead of the slap on the wrist and publicity they too frequently get.

Can't The News Be Better Entertainment?

You know, if news media is just going to be fiction for the sake of entertainment, views, and discussion, I wish it would do a little better with character development and worldbuilding. Also, if the writers aren't going to have strong enough characters to make them unique, I wish they would cut out a few of the more redundant characters. I'm just glad they only have one President character at a time.

Avengers on Trial

The Sokovia Accords were (supposedly) because of the Avengers' rampant property damage and third-degree murder. Shouldn't a trial have come first? A trial that involved the appearance of at least one legal representative of the Avengers, each member of the Avengers, and witnesses? How would that trial have gone if it had happened during Civil War and the Sokovia Accords hadn't happened yet? Here are my guesses. Hawkeye would get off almost completely. He caused the least property damage, killed no humans, and while he might be charged with assault, he could get off with a temporary insanity plea since he was mind-controlled or in self-defense during each instance of assault. He'd probably get even less of a penalty since he's not an active member of the Avengers after Sokovia. He'd probably get a $10,000 fine for property damage. Assuming the UN still bothers to try Banner after the events of Infinity War (when Banner finally gets back to earth)...
