heres why:

Dude dodged a rape case from a white woman, whether he did it or not

He's an actor, which itself is not a transferable skill and highly competitive butndude has reached the point of his career where he's gaining momentum

But now he's at the point where it can all come crashing down...I'd rather my career be over because insucked at acting or my movie sucked...than because I couldn't swallow my pride

It's chess not checkers

Say you're sorry while still proclaiming your innocence...and save the real shyt for your family and friends

If I put that much work in no way would I just lose it all

I wouldn't apologize. Look, I'm in Pennsylvania, and with the exception of sections within Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, this state is basically Mississippi. That said, for him to beat a rape charge in the 90s, in the middle Pennsylvania, acquitted by an all white jury of raping a white woman............NO, he need not apologize for anything.

Second, I can understand tossing a bone to the feminist types for the sake of his career, but really he's already done that and is still being criticized with his career still being in jeopardy.

Honestly apologizing would be career suicide. Because then they would play the "oh well you apologize so you ADMIT you raped her!"

It being chess, not checkers is a good reason why you shouldn't apologize.

Guilt, and apology are signs of weakness. Don't apologize if you've been acquitted and know you've done nothing wrong.
