I don't like him or Kesha to be honest but why was he fired for an allegation?


Was he proved guilty? Did Kesha not give a testimony in 2011 that he never raped her?

"Before her legal battle against Dr. Luke, in 2011, Kesha had previously sworn under oath that the producer had never assaulted or drugged her in a deposition for a lawsuit against her former managers at DAS Communications, a key piece of evidence that played a role in the court ruling in favor of the defense"


So why was the dude fired from Sony? Isn't he innocent until proven guilty?


Also, if you could just allege rape and get out of any contractual agreement without a conviction, it would happen all the time.


All the females supporting kesha are being sexist and holding a double standard

Didn't want the negative publicity surrounding the scandal to be connected back with them.

Also, you speak as though no one has ever felt pressured into lying under oath. Not saying Kesha is telling the truth about these allegations but it's not over until it's over.

So any negative allegation can just ruin someone's career? If acquitted he should get his job back.

Did I say they should, or that was Sony's decision? It's up to them entirely whether or not they want to have an employee wrapped up in a scandal. They are not required to keep his job intact in this event if they don't want to. Is it wrong? Arguably, yes, and I don't really agree with their choice, but it is their own.
