Hey everyone, Chris Hansen getting busted cheating on his wife is NOT the same as him busting would-be sexual predators. Huff-Po wrote up this story and they made sure to mention that the woman he cheated with was 21 years his junior (but still, she is an adult and a journalist), and the story proceeded to describe “to catch a predator” as “featur[ing] Hansen and an advocacy organization called Perverted Justice posing as younger women and communicating with older men online, and then catching would-be sex offenders at a location that they and the almost-offender agreed upon.” THAT IS NOT WHAT THE SHOW IS. The show poses as “WOMEN UNDER THE LEGAL AGE OF CONSENT” which is much different than “Younger women.” Clearly they are describing the show as such to draw a parallel (which doesn’t really exist) between what Hansen did and his show.
Is Chris Hansen a disgusting person for cheating on his wife and the mother of his children and then getting publicly busted for it thereby bringing disgrace to his family? YES. Does he actually share anything in common with the sexual predators that he busts on his show, no. Shame on you, Chris Hansen, but shame too on anyone who would liken what he did to the actions of the perverts he busts on his show…
