Haha few things bettah than having yr sincere prejudices confirmed by unmoored gossip

Haha few things bettah than having yr sincere prejudices confirmed by unmoored gossip. Spent an evening with two relatives who work in the TV documentary industry. Relative X had just seen the Nick Broomfield doc on Tupac: verdict = ‘total meh’ (ie Broomfield’s whodunit theory too vague even to remember, plus as usual zero competent research = thus spake Relative X). Relative Y pipes up: NB has been pulling the same stunts since his student film (in the 70s?): ‘he’s always been dishonest in exactly the same way’ = Y’s exact words, with grim anecdote to back it up… Words that get bandied around freely during the evening: vain, stupid, boyish, bald spot, ‘the success of Diamond Skull‘, manipulative, dishonourable, abusive to those who work under him, oh dear I enjoyed myself. But wd it stand up in court?
