Wow, suddenly the crime women don't lie about becomes the crime that has a certain error factor, and we are told that by an acknowledged expert in the field, Lena Dunham.
ZitatGirls” creator and star Lena Dunham is speaking out in defense of Murray Miller, a former executive producer and writer on her HBO comedy accused of raping underage actress Aurora Perrineau.
“While our first instinct is to listen to every woman’s story, our insider knowledge of Murray’s situation makes us confident that sadly this accusation is one of the 3% of assault cases that are misreported every year,” Dunham said through spokesperson. The statement was cosigned by her “Girls” showrunner Jenni Konner.
“It is a true shame to add to that number, as outside of Hollywood women still struggle to be believed. We stand by Murray and this is all we’ll be saying about this issue,” Dunham continued.

ZitatOver the weekend, a writer from Lena Dunham and Jenni Konner’s Lenny Letter publicly left the popular newsletter, citing Dunham’s racism and response to rape accusations against her friend and co-worker Murray Miller.
“It is time for women of color — black women in particular — to divest from Lena Dunham,” writer Zinzi Clemmons tweeted. In a long post that followed, the What We Lose writer claims that Dunham and her friends (including Girls co-star Jemima Kirke), whom the author has known since their college years, have been notorious for “their well-known racism.” She adds, “I’d call their strain ‘hipster racism,’ which typically uses sarcasm as a cover, and in the end, it looks a lot like gaslighting — ‘It’s just a joke. Why are you overreacting?"
