Abstract

The article reflects on the need to care about an artist's intent as it is care about an artist's actions, both good and bad. It argues whether audiences will continue to laugh at "The Cosby Show" knowing that its star is a convicted sex offender or identify with actor Dustin Hoffman after hearing that he sexually humiliated underage girls. It also makes reference to the film "Manhattan."
