Wow... that gives a lot of perspective and... I feel bad for being part of that. I've definitely made Tonya Harding jokes and thought ill of her. That time waa just all about blaming women for shit (just like blaming a 22-year-old intern for a sexual scandal with a 49-year-old who happened to be one of the most powerful people on earth at the time) that even a cursory glance suggests they could be the victim.
It's been mentioned above, but Sarah Marshall's podcast You're Wrong About explores these stories of "maligned women of the 90s" (and many others) with depth and compassion. I highly recommend it.
