Three More Accusers of Dustin Hoffman Speak Out

Cori Thomas, Kathryn Rossetter and Anna Graham Hunter spoke to "NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt" to share their experiences with Hoffman, 80, who stands accused of sexual assault and/or harassment by eight different women.

Thomas was just 16 when Hoffman allegedly exposed himself to her in a New York City hotel room and requested a massage after a day spent roaming the city with her and his daughter, Karina, one of Thomas' friends from school.

Kathryn Rossetter meanwhile, worked with Hoffman on the 1980 Broadway production of "Death of a Salesman," and claims her stage partner repeatedly groped her backstage. Rossetter said he once tried to penetrate her with his fingers after placing his hand on her thigh, and that she was advised to just suck it up, as he was one of the most famous stars in the world.

The actress later worked with Hoffman again on the 1985 TV movie version of "Death of a Salesman" — the same set in which Anna Graham Hunter says Hoffman made crass comments to her, groped her and repeatedly requested foot rubs when she was a 17-year-old intern.

I straight up have no idea who TJ Miller is even when I saw his picture. Am I just old?

He was on that show “Silicon Valley” and also appeared in such classics as “Office Christmas Party” and “The Emoji Movie”

He gets a lot of voice over stuff and is the annoying funny man of the time period.

I think I know more about how he is away from the screen than who he is exactly on it.

He was the guy holding the camera in Cloverfield and was Ryan Reynolds best friend in Deadpool. He's also one of the more popular current stand up acts at the moment, I think.

I knew him as Marmaduke on the short lived (IMO classic) sitcom Carpoolers.

No, it's not. It's a truly abysmal and stupid fucking point. Are we no longer supposed to watch documentaries on shitbags?

...except it wasn't a 'portrayal of a shitbag'.

They knew about all this awful shit he did, and hid it so they could make a 'wrongful conviction' doc that put their network on the map. It worked on me.

None of that stuff you posted explained why it should be cancelled.

Also, don't you go around telling everyone that accusations don't automatically equate to guilt?

Now that I've looked into this more, many of the allegations are passed on by a prosecutor who refused to be interviewed. Welp, I guess they shouldn't produce any documentaries because someone refused to do an interview.

Accusations don't automatically equate to guilt but this is much more than an accusation. Also, I generally believe accusers in sexual assault cases.

If you can't understand why one might think there's hypocrisy in letting Spacey go for allegations of sexual misconduct but hiding allegations of rape for someone that you use to sell your network, then idk

I'm not even saying I agree with it...but it's not a bad point.

Also, the allegations went beyond the lawyer:

The difference is that one is playing a character who harassed people on set and the other is a convicted murderer that everyone should realize is still scum even if he didn't do it.

By this logic it isn't okay for PBS to sell Vietnam War documentaries or anything of the like.

Now we'll never get the "Victor Frankenstein" sequel we all wanted.

I didn't realize Making a Murderer put Netflix on the map.

I had issues with the documentary all along but that doesn't mean it should be pulled.

Chappelle mentions Schachner's story twice in his sexual harasssment bit. "One lady said, 'Louis C.K. masturbated in front of me, ruined my comedy dreams,'" he says. "Word?' Well then I dare say, madam, you may have never had a dream. Come on man, that's a brittle spirit. That is a brittle-ass spirit, that is too much, this grown-ass woman."

Chappelle says that if Louis C.K. had masturbated in front of civil-rights icon Martin Luther King, he doubts that King would have dropped his "dream." "Show business is just harder than that," he continues. "I know that sounds fucked up, I'm not supposed to say that, but one of these ladies was like, 'Louis C.K .was masturbating while I was on the phone with him.' Bitch, you don't know how to hang up a phone? How the fuck are you going to survive in show business if this is an actual obstacle to your dreams?"

Predictably some people are mad about this.

He also shits all over Louie right after that bit so you can tell who watched it or not by their reaction.

Shitting on Louie doesnt make his take on the women and their reactions right, I'm not mad but I don't agree at all that someone else can tell a person who has been harassed or molested how to feel about it. Dave's a comedian though and he pokes at people that's who he is.

I'm watching the special now and just like the last one I don't have an issue with his jokes on transgender etc but I think they're weaker than most of the material. Rather here him tell stories and I like his transition to older dad husband stuff he mixes in

Way way more interesting and what I think people should be talking about is his bit about how they should copy south Africa's truth and reconciliation model. It's actually really insightful and would I think be more effective than anything else

Most of the people complaining didn't actually watch the thing if I had to take a guess. It sounds like he found a way to offend everyone again going by the Trumptards whining and crying about this too.
