The magazine claims to have spent close to a year into the investigation, citing “more than 50 sources.” The victims interviewed said they were “psychologically damaged, with substance-abuse problems, depression, and PTSD” due to the trauma of Singer’s behavior. Singer slammed back at the allegations, shouting “homophobia” in a just-released statement: “The last time I posted about this subject, Esquire magazine was preparing to publish an article written by a homophobic journalist who has a bizarre obsession with me dating back to 1997. After careful fact-checking and, in consideration of the lack of credible sources, Esquire chose not to publish this piece of vendetta journalism.” “That didn’t stop this writer from selling it to The Atlantic,” continued the statement. “It’s sad that The Atlantic would stoop to this low standard of journalistic integrity. Again, I am forced to reiterate that this story rehashes claims from bogus lawsuits filed by a disreputable cast of individuals willing to lie for money or attention. And it is no surprise that, with Bohemian Rhapsody being an award-winning hit, this homophobic smear piece has been conveniently timed to take advantage of its success. Contribute Hire me
