Is it not condoning the in-life deranged acts of the artist by ignoring their behavior? For me, I can’t do it.
I am not ignoring their behavior or the accusations of that behavior but am focusing on something that they usually created with hundreds of other people. Each film made often involves hundreds if not thousands of people as do many recorded songs.

It is like throwing many babies out with the bath water.

Michael Jackson - Thriller (Official Music Video) - YouTube There were probably many people involved with making, distributing and marketing Michael Jackson's Thriller.
