Downplaying the existence of a list of highly likely pedophiles doesn’t really put you in a good light. :/ But he never directly defended Epstein, as far as I can see. That’s my error.
That’s like saying that a lot of people get murdered in Stephen King’s stories, so he must have homicidal fantasies.

I believe it’s heavily implied due to his defense of Epstein.
When did he defend Epstein?

Yep when your job is to shock, gross out and give people very specifically a moral and ethical panic attack
You tend to do some fucked up stuff.
