Netflix ending 'House of Cards,' says 'troubled' by Spacey allegation


LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Netflix Inc’s groundbreaking political drama “House of Cards” will end after its upcoming sixth season, the company said on Monday, one day after a sexual misconduct allegation emerged against star Kevin Spacey.

Netflix (NFLX.O) also said in a statement that it was “deeply troubled” about an allegation made against Spacey by actor Anthony Rapp who said Spacey had made a sexual advance to him in 1986, when Rapp was 14 years old.

Spacey said in a Twitter post on Sunday that he was “beyond horrified” to hear Rapp’s story of the encounter, which he said he did not remember. He wrote that he owed Rapp a “sincere apology” for what he said would have been “deeply inappropriate drunken behavior.”

A representative for Spacey did not immediately respond to Reuters for comment.

FTC Yaaaaay!


Not trying to condone any form of sexual assault but these Americans are taking this thing too far. Seems its becoming a fad to ruin someone's career on the alter of sexual malpractice just as s/he's about to get to its pinnacle.

On behalf of Jon Snow, I apologize for any babe he accidentally touched drunk or undrunk. Please if you have any claims to lay, please contact him in private before causing global HBP. Thanks.
