ifeveristoday:
it’s been a topic openly known about in fandom for years, but to read the explicit details of what Joss did to Charisma Carpenter - the abortion demand my god, is still a gut punch. Both in hindsight and while the show was on, everything she said is obvious and was absolutely reflected in the writing of certain characters. His pettiness and favoritism showed itself onscreen and he was constantly aided and abetted by his writers and fellow producers, the most egregious being Fury, Greenwalt and Minear, and probably Noxon as well - who may have felt obligation as he was a mentor figure to her.
I can only think people being surprised about this are people who are new to fandom, or were only involved in it surface wise and didn’t go too deep into the behind the scenes information and actors’ lives. I regret to say that the abuse doesn’t end with Joss, and if you were to look further into the actions of some of the actors, specifically the men, you would be disappointed and revolted. It’s clear that the environment was hostile and unsafe for women.
But with Charisma, Amber, Clare Kramer, and Sarah speaking out (also this bullshit about how SMG’s statement was too PR generic - get out of here. She may have been abused (and most likely was) by Joss in the same way and doesn’t need to share her trauma for approval) really shines a wider light on the abuse Joss inflicted, perhaps encouraged.
Michelle, Emma, and Eliza have also come forward to support Charisma. ASH, J. August Richards, James C. Leary (Clem), and Christopher Golden (prolific BtVS tie-in novel author among other novels) as well.
ETA 2/12/21: Marti Noxon, James Marsters have also released statements supporting the survivors. Jose Molina, a writer who wrote for Firefly has also come out in support for Charisma.
ETA 2/13/21: Danny Strong posts support for Charisma and the women who’ve made statements. A Reddit thread collecting the cast statements.. Jonathan Woodward (Holden, Knox (Ats), Tracy on Firefly) has also posted his support.
Reblogging my original post with an added sentence and a list of Charisma’s fellow colleagues/writers who have made statements. Also updated with the information that some of the male actors associated with Buffy have abused others as well, if not their castmates
This. Joss Whedon is a pig, but the actors, writers, and stunt people deserve to be recognized for their amazing work.

CBS paid Eliza Dushku $9.5 million to resolve claims that she was retaliated against for complaining about sexual harassment on the set of the prime time drama Bull, according to a report in the New York Times.
Dushku appeared in three episodes of the show and had been assured of a significant recurring role, the NYT reports. That changed when she became the focus of a series of uncomfortable comments made by the show’s star, Michael Weatherly, who remarked about her appearance, made a rape joke and a commented about a threesome, according to the Times account.
After raising complaints, Dushku was written off the show, which the actress believed was in retaliation for speaking out. She entering mediation with the network, and received a confidential settlement that would pay her the equivalent of the salary she would have earned if she remained on the show for four seasons.
CBS confirmed the settlement in a statement.
“The allegations in Ms. Dushku’s claims are an example that, while we remain committed to a culture defined by a safe, inclusive and respectful workplace, our work is far from done,” CBS said. “The settlement of these claims reflects the projected amount that Ms. Dushku would have received for the balance of her contract as a series regular, and was determined in a mutually agreed upon mediation process at the time.”
The Times reported that details of the confidential settlement emerged as part of an independent examination of CBS’ culture in the wake of sexual misconduct charges leveled against former CEO Les Moonves. It may well be viewed as a sign of broader problems at the media company.
Dusku’s representative could not immediately be reached for comment, nor could Weatherly’s representative. The actor issued a statement to the Times, expressing remorse for his remarks.
“During the course of taping our show, I made some jokes mocking some lines in the script,” Weatherly said in the statement. “When Eliza told me that she wasn’t comfortable with my language and attempt at humor, I was mortified to have offended her and immediately apologized. After reflecting on this further, I better understand that what I said was both not funny and not appropriate and I am sorry and regret the pain this caused Eliza.”
Dushku has been a prominent figure in the #MeToo movement. The actress accused famed stunt coordinator Joel Kramer of sexually molesting her when she was 12 years old during filming of True Lies. He called the claims “outlandish.” Two other accusers subsequently came forward.

Goodbye 2016; Hello 2017
It's been a long road getting here. There has been achievement, joy, good times,… and there has been grief. There's been loss. Some people who should be here today… aren't. But we are. Journey's end. And what is a journey? Is it just… distance travelled? Time spent? No. It's what happens on the way, it the things that happen to you. At the end of the journey, you're not the same. Today is about change.
Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays to all those who celebrate the holiday & have an awesome Sunday to all those who don’t.
Wishing you all a great 2017.
