You summed it all up in this one sentence. If we threw out the creation every time the creator was revealed to be a jackass, we’d have no rock music left at all (to use one example). The harder question is not whether past work should be jettisoned when we find out things like we have about Whedon, but what place we give him going forward. No easy answer to that one. Excellent article in any case…you have inspired me to finally watch BTVS.
