- One of Danny Masterson’s alleged sexual assault victims said this weekend Andy Yeatman, a Netflix executive and director of global kids content, told her that higher-ups at Netflix don’t believe the four women who have accused Masterson of rape after she inquired about Netflix's inaction. This happened at a kids sports game where Yeatman is a coach and the accuser is the wife of one of the other team's coaches.
- Netflix confirmed the statement, calling it “careless” and “uninformed” BUUUUUT also notes the asshole wasn't aware he was talking to one of the accusers,
- The victim told Yeatman that she and the other women accusing Masterson of rape were telling the truth and that “Netflix is going to regret this, this is a mistake, they’re going to see.” A witness confirmed the exchange, and that Yeatman said in a condescending tone, “we’ll see.” A Netflix spokesman denied he said such a thing.
- Netflix released a statement, saying in part: "We are aware of the allegations against Danny Masterson and we are following the current investigation, and will respond if developments occur."
