I admire and totally agree with you Trent. I think it’s cool that you give people the option of seeing the photo or not.

The photos was leaked because Rihanna was saying she was going to drop charges.

Oh my God. I knew that Chris Brown had beat her, but I didn’t know that he had hurt her like that. It really sucks that the photo was leaked, because now Rihanna is going through so much. Chris Brown really does deserve to go to jail for what he did to her. You are the only blogger I know that would not post that picture, and kudos to you for not doing that.

I think it was unfortunate that the photo was leaked; however, after reading loads of comments other places and hearing quite a few young men where I live reference how “she probably wasn’t that messed up” or “she made him do it” (you get the picture of some of the attitudes out there) actually seeing what he did to her might shut some of those nay-sayers down. Yes, it was an invasion of her privacy. But I have heard way too many critical comments about her in the last couple of weeks. Maybe some of those people will see what happened to her and stop defending Chris Brown.

can i just say, PITNB is soooo less bitchy then some of the other gossip sites, that is why i love it so dear, (not to say i don’t love the other ones)
seriously, have u seen some of the comments left on some of the other sites. Alot of comments are so nasty and some… no ALOT of readers then say nasty things to the owner who spent bout 10 hours looking for news for the readers own enjoyment. I just read the post and don’t even bother reading the comments which I really love doing.
PITNB has such nice commenters, kudos to you Mr PITNB (im so sorry i dont know your name, clearly I haven’t red any of these comments, HA) for being such a nice person and then keeping the comments nice.
i love you PITNB & co.

I am so glad you did not post the picture. That is FOUL that anyone would. You are the only blogger with any tact.

I say this as a victim’s advocate and former domestic violence victim: Intimate partner violence/domestic violence is a common occurrence. It needs to be discussed publicly to take away the shame of being abused and serve to empower victims. Yes, it is a serious invasion of privacy to publish a victim’s brutalized face. However, the photo has been leaked. I hope Rihanna feels no shame in this event. I hope she seeks support. I hope Chris Brown seeks support. An abuser can modify their behavior if they really want to heal themselves through therapy. It takes time and effort to change. More importantly I hope she becomes an advocate. I hope other young women and men involved in violent relationships find the strength to leave their partners after witnessing this unfortunate event.

The Dahlia Post~ You obviously have never been a victim of DV. I wouldn’t wish it on any person, however I hope one day your eyes opened to the truth of it.

Fuck all those people who are calling you un-classy for posting the link. This is what you do, you’re a quasi-journalist…I think by leaving it up to the reader’s to view the link as they choose was a respectful move. Nobody should thrust photos like that onto the public. Thank you for not doing so. I’m so shocked at the severity of the abuse. I can’t believe those photo’s were leaked…its clear the anguish she felt in her face…taking advantage of someone’s vulnerability is beyond revolting
