Director Bryan Singer has responded to new allegations published in a lengthy exposé in The Atlantic that he sexually assaulted underage boys over a period of 20 years.
Singer claims that Esquire, which had originally commissioned the exposé chose not to publish it after it had been fact-checked.
Said Singer in a statement published by Deadline: “That didn’t stop this writer from selling it to The Atlantic.It’s sad that The Atlantic would stoop to this low standard of journalistic integrity. Again, I am forced to reiterate that this story rehashes claims from bogus lawsuits filed by a disreputable cast of individuals willing to lie for money or attention. And it is no surprise that, with Bohemian Rhapsody being an award-winning hit, this homophobic smear piece has been conveniently timed to take advantage of its success.”
Singer claimed the article was “written by a homophobic journalist who has a bizarre obsession with me dating back to 1997.”
