Maybe Allen and Soon-yi threatened to sue



Some website calling itself "Showbiz Cheat Sheet" had an article entitled "Is Woody Allen Still Married to his Adopted Daughter, Soon-yi Previn?"

If she was his adopted daughter, why did she have Andre Previn's last name?

It took them a week or so, but they finally changed the headline to "Is Woody Allen Still Married to Soon-yi Previn?"

I read something on a Feminist website. They hated Woody Allen, of course. And, scrolling down to the comments, they all had all the facts wrong. One person was trying to correct the others because the misogynists would use the fact that they had no clue what they were talking about to defend Woody Allen. There was no suggestion that they rethink their views based on this.

Here's an odd bit of logic they keep using. They think the fact that Allen was never arrested, prosecuted or charged with any crime means that we don't know if he's guilty of anything because he didn't have a trial. Like if he had been charged with a crime and acquitted they might believe him.
