What does the secretary look like? I mean there's a point where it should even out. If she's rather ghastly herself that changes things.

$5000/month doesn't seem like enough to make that look attractive.


Have we seen her though? Is she worth 5000/month?

Hence, the whole "cynic" bit.


No, you see, a cynic would question any accusation. A hack would only question accusations based on his prior fantasy world beliefs, hence our ability to know your position. If, say, a hispanic fellow shot and killed a black kid, a cynic would question the story provided to justify the killing. A hack would just consult his belief chart and see "black guy killed by non black guy" then follow it to "black guy's fault".

And in this case, I don't think I'm even remotely in the minority with my opinion.

No clue. I'm sure most misogynist racists agree with you, but that's pretty much always the case, isn't it?

Her name is in the article and this is what google says she looks like.

From what I've seen on that Cathouse show on HBO, she could definitely get more than 1250 a night...

No. This is where you let your own need to change the narrative get in the way. A cynic would assume she is acting from selfishness. Period. It's not about questioning the accusation at all. It's about assuming that she took the $5k/month payment because she was greedy and not fearful. That this happens to create strong evidence that her accusation is at the least only part of the story, and quite possibly completely fabricated is useful in this context, but being a cynic doesn't automatically mean you question every accusation or claim. It means that you judge people's behavior based on a "what's best for the person taking the action" basis.


And while it's not a perfect way to judge people's actions (no single methodology is), it is accurate more often than not. It's certainly not a bad idea to examine issues by asking what each party stands to gain or lose and then proceeding from there. Again, not perfect, but usually better than most other approaches.

Very interesting. Well either way at this point.

That's more for when someone leaks a video tape or something, which I'm guessing is a possibility here. So while we're waiting for that...

Right. So precisely what I posted. Glad we agree. A cynic would question Zimmerman's defense, and find it comically unbelievable. Hence you are a hack, only "cynical" in completely predictable ways not in any way related to cynicism.

Police found a ripped copy of the sex-for-money contract in the woman's home.


Why was the contract ripped? Was someone trying to dispose of evidence, or was somebody ripping the contract out of rage? Or some other reason?

I assume that they'll either investigate that or "investigate" it while taking their check to the bank.
