It's absolutely not the same, for quite a few reasons (start with "plausible deniability" - she very well could be lying, embellishing, misconstruing, whatever). If she had published photos of coitus, then you'd be onto something.

It's not a matter of libel...I'm sure they would have come forward by now to deny it if they didn't have sex with her...and I'm not even talking in criminal terms. I'm talking morally, ethically, etc. Not ok, period.

I mean, obviously.

This is absolutely not true. In fact, it's probably best if they don't comment at all either way.

Right, and so am I (my whole point was that it isn't libel, that it was just stupid). I think you missed my whole point here. Who said it was "OK"?
