Back a few years ago, Kareem was the only commentator who noticed that Donald Sterling (in an essay that roundly condemned Sterling's racism) was also the victim of a felonious violation of privacy - this at the height of the NSA insanity. He has a lot of common sense.

BTW, it's more and more apparent that Smith did irrevocable harm to himself.  Humpty Dumpty.

"Irrevocable" is an extreme word and I suspect misplaced.  Americans are by and large a very forgiving people.

studio execs may be more cautious about being forgiving, of course with the recent expansion of the number of funders and distribution channels for movies (streaming being the largest) that's likely less of an issue than it would have been 10 years ago
