But you also should think about what doesn't get made because creeps in comedy make women in comedy uncomfortable and unsafe. Dave Becky (super powerful comedy manager) threatened and blackballed the women that complained about Louis CK's behavior. (See also, Weinstein).

I think the consensus was that Joey Coco Diaz was mostly joking about demanding blow jobs for stage time, but regardless, listen to women in comedy for any amount of time and you will hear them say that there's a creep problem in comedy.
I don't know who you are arguing with here. No one is against removing sexual predators from the entertainment industry.

Joey Diaz may be innocent of sexual predation, but he remains guilty of being wildly unfunny.
