My biggest question from the start was why didn’t he call police right from the spot he was jumped?  

Why did he come back in view still holding his subway and not take the rope off his neck?  

Just a lot of questions from the start. 

 

 

I think the main reason is because he's a moron. My 8 year old could have pulled off a more convincing stunt.

False.

(Speaking as someone who knows Hollywood and how it works)

 

But are they jobs that anyone would even care about?  Seeing as how most of us had no clue who he was anyway, I can't help but wonder if those jobs would be any different than what he had already.

Probably true that they'd be the same type gigs. More than one or two enterprising financiers will take a run at giving him a staring vehicle of some kind just to cash in on the controversy/hype surrounding Smallette. And with Netflix pouring money into activist "shows" (and hiring political activists as producers to make them), he'll have more than enough "safe spaces" where he'll be viewed as a hero even though he lied. 

 

Then there's the reality TV circuit... 

 

He'll have plenty of work when he gets done with this, barring a prolonged sentence which allows him to completely disappear out of view.

Well, from this answer, I can be happy in knowing I will continue to be completely unaware of who he is and what he's doing.

Hey, if John Wayne Bobbitt & Joey Buttafuoco landed movie roles, there's hope for Jussie.

Well if he does a phony stunt imitating John Wayne Bobbitt I am sure the film will get a lot of views.  Now he just needs to make sure he does not pay partner with a check.

Amazing how after the facts came out, this story seems to have been forgotten

I was thinking the same thing. I'm curious if there will be any charges. It's crazy to me that this was the top story for 2 weeks because it hit all the hot button topics (racism, homophobia,  politics), then when none of these were found to be true, the story just fell off the map. Makes one wonder what the true intent of the media is.

You're not seriously still wondering, are you?

Just because this was a hoax, does not mean people aren't getting stabbed by homeless people every day.

It fell off the map because there not much left to talk about. Leading up to it it was a story because there was an investigation to figure out what happened, they found it to be a hoax which pretty much ends the story until a court case begins or he starts talking in public again. Until then, what's to report or talk about? The news/media are there to report what is available to them at the time. Nothing appears to have been made up or fabricated by the media in this. They just 'reported' what he told everyone happened. People then took that info and ran with it.

If the media are there to just report the facts then in the interest of fairness USA Today should run an article about the number of fake lynchings that occurred in the course of US history.

We had a few days about the story, a couple weeks as it fell apart and people tore it up, and then a few days post mortem  after it died. Do you really want more coverage of this important event in American history?

Keep it on the front page till he goes to jail.

It faded into oblivion after the Bob Kraft and R. Kelly scandals.

Horrible story, indeed.  But it has no resemblance to what Jussie what's his name did.
