In defense of Kristen Stewart’s rape comment, Robert Pattinson talked to Entertainment Weekly to set the record straight.

He said, “None of those associations came out and gave a statement [criticizing Kristen] without being called upon by the media first–who were doing it specifically to get hits on their websites. That whole system of Internet journalists, where no one is called to account, is almost entirely about hate. All these people get away with doing it because they have no responsibility to anyone. All they need is to get a salacious headline and people click on it, because it’s easy. And it’s quite good being part of these ‘Twilight’ films because you have to give so many interviews all the time, you can defend yourself. That’s the only way. All of us stick together, as well. There are so many little nerds behind their computers, on their little blogs.”

So, we’re all nerds with our little blogs? Why didn’t he take that a step further and insinuate that we all still live in our mother’s basements and still ask to borrow her car. Oh, that’s right, because then he’d have to be witty. Scratch that.
