The recent ruling in the human trafficking case of social media influencer Andrew Tate has been surrounded by a lot of hype on both sides. No, I’m not talking about the prosecutor’s office. This all seems to be the Tate brothers vs establishment media. So much bovine excrement has been heaped upon the story that it’s hard to find out what is actually occurring here. HBR does not have a position on Tate’s innocence or guilt, nor do we support either the attempts at socially executing him with cancellation, or his work as an influencer. We’re just here to consider the court’s adherence to the principles of due process, or its failure to do so, the importance of that detail, and its implications. We will also discuss media bias against men, establishment media narrative building, and how Tate’s example can provide men a way to respond within the legal system when facing false allegations, which might act as a deterrent to future false accusers.
