Seth Gor’s domestic violence experience shows just how biased the media is

Seth Gor has recently come out to give his side of the story in which his ex-girlfriend decided to accuse him of being abusive in their relationship and she had an O/B number to prove that she had reported him to the cops for the same.

When that story broke out, every female writer was quick to deliver a very lopsided story about the same, sacrificing integrity and fairness. Seth Gor on his part did little to defend himself so the narrative was very one-sided.

Nearly a year later, Seth has finally decided to shed some light on his account of things and he has medical reports to support his narrative. Yes, Seth Gor came through with entire documents for the sake of proving his claims that it was he and not her who was the victim of domestic violence.

The media’s response has been wanting. There have been no articles enumerating the fact that men too are often on the receiving end of female aggression and more often than not, they cannot defend themselves for fear of being branded violent. Bwana Gor is still not being shown in quite the same light as his former beau was when it was assumed she was the victim.

That has to make you think especially because it seems the narrative going round about men being aggressors isn’t being addressed and rather, being ignored. Rather than push a dialogue around what is clearly a problem for both genders, the sentiment that is clearly championed is one that claims men are always the aggressors.

You see, had Seth Gor’s ex come through with actual medical reports showing she was battered, cancel culture would be in full effect with Kenya’s psuedo intellectual feminazis pushing for an end in his career. Especially the loud and rowdy Twitter bunch.

At the end of the day, whether or not you are a misandrist feminist or a male chauvinist, you have to admit that domestic violence is a problem that afflicts both men and women and therefore the solutions should focus on helping both genders and keeping them safe from violence on the home front.

Seth Gor was the subject of a scandal sometime last year that featured him being accused by his then-girlfriend of being abusive. When the story broke agenda-driven blogs rushed to paint him as a monster and while a lot of bloggers overstepped their mandate and did a shoddy job of reporting the story fairly, he too had a part to play in his portrayal.

You see, Seth Gor’s girlfriend shared an O/B number and she showed that she had reported the matter to the police following the incident in which she claimed to have been beaten by the comedian. Naturally, this cost Seth Gor quite a lot as his public image took quite the beating.

Throughout the entire process, Seth decided to remain mute on the matter. The problem is, the only narrative circulating is one in which you’re the villain. That is the narrative that is echoing around as different media outlets push it and by the time you decide to clear the air, it can be too late.

Take for instance what Seth has decided to do now: clear the air. Yes, he has come through with receipts that include a hospital medical report that shows it was he who was the victim of domestic abuse. it was he who was attacked as his wounds are defensive. But you will notice one thing, the circus, the hue and din that accompanied the first accusations isn’t there.

No one seems to be as deeply concerned with retelling his truth just as loudly as they first reported the fact that he was the aggressor. No blog wants to correct their original narrative. And this is where Seth Gor has no one to blame but himself for the way the situation has played out and how difficult it will be for him to clear his name.

You see, by my estimation, he should have shared all the information he had at the very beginning of his smear campaign as he claims it to be. There was no reason for him to remain silent. While I understand that shame is silent and likes to hide, his career and public image should have motivated, nay, incentivized him to speak up if only to protect his brand. His failure to realize that sooner though not fatal, did some serious damage to it as he is now mentioned in the same breath as abusers.

So what now? Well, he has no option but to declare the truth and share his “receipts” as much as he can and hope that they get picked and shared around with the same fervour the original story was circulated with otherwise, the damage is done.
