Comedic writer endures backlash for suggesting anonymous accusers may be lying

Article here. Excerpt:

'A former "Inside Amy Schumer" contributor generated a social-media firestorm by calling out some women for making allegations of sexual assault about a fellow comedian but not reporting them to police.

"Guys I have just heard some disturbing news, this guy Jiff Dilfyberg is a rapist!" writer-comedian Kurt Metzger wrote on Facebook over the weekend after learning that the New York-based Upright Citizens Brigade banned comedian Aaron Glaser — the target of the anonymous accusers. "I know because women said it and that's all I need! Never you mind who they are. They are women! ALL women are as reliable as my bible! A book that, much like a women, is incapable of lying!"

Metzger then sarcastically argued that the alleged rape victims are afraid to report the assaults to authorities because they are "too brave" and that would be "tooooo rapey."

Now Metzger is being accused of victim-blaming the women in a series of social-media posts.'
