Finaldi's team shamelessly name-drops MJ/LN while referencing Peter Nygard allegations (which they have no involvement in).

Nygard: Accuser count went from 10 to 46 in SIX WEEKS.

MJ: Accuser count (WR+JS) hasn't budged in SIX YEARS despite worldwide efforts by Finaldi & media.
To be clear—accuser count is meaningless on its own in determining one's guilt or innocence (e.g., 100s of kids made false CSA claims in McMartin scandal).

The point here is how Finaldi claims MJ ran one of the MOST EXTENSIVE CSA ops in history yet accusations remain only WR+JS.
In fact there are plenty of sketchy details surrounding Nygard's cases that DO resemble circumstances in MJ's cases, but not for the reasons Finaldi implies.

For instance, "two [accusers] later RECANTED, saying they had been PROMISED MONEY & COACHED to FABRICATE their stories."
Nygard vehemently denies the accusations & accuses his billionaire neighbor as a shakedown (w/ a racketeering counter-case). His neighbor once paid $6 million to a fake CIA agent to try and stir accusations & seize on #MeToo; FBI/homeland security found no prosecutorial evidence.
The earliest Nygard accusers played a key role in the civil suit developments. Like MJ's false accusers, they told of graphic abuse (even to authorities).

But later admitted: "They had never been assaulted. They had never even met Nygard. They [were] paid to make everything up."
To have at least 2 false accusations against Nygard again shows people lie about CSA.

The truth of Nygard's case & dozens of new accusers has yet to unfold but having false accusers in the mix muddies the entirety of it.

In MJ's case, the ONLY accusers are already proven liars.
NYTimes studied Nygard's accusations from BOTH sides. It details the evolution of the two false accusers amidst the new ones.

By contrast, NYTimes chose to blindly condemn MJ by accepting LN's accusations w/ no research. Sigh...
