As the conversation surrounding the “#MeToo” movement in Hollywood moves forward, the controversy surrounding comedian Aziz Ansari continues to split opinions. Now, fellow comedian Joel McHale is sticking up for Ansari. When asked about the Ansari story, McHale took a distinct side arguing that the date, while bad, was consensual. “The #MeToo movement is tremendous and awesome and it needs to happen and continue forever,” he said, qualifying his previous statement. Ansari did not attend the 2018 Screen Actors Guild Awards on Sunday despite being nominated.
