Dan Schneider and the blame game

Since the release of Jennette McCurdy's book, I'm Glad My Mom Died, Dan Schneider has been in some trouble. The former Nickelodeon actress accused Dan of abusive behavior on set in her memoir.

In the book, she opened up about her past negative experiences with the kids’ channel where she was exploited. She also claimed that she was offered hush money amounting to nearly $300,000. All of this brought forth a lot of netizens who also claimed that Dan is not the only executive who has been accused of similar behaviors.

It is also worth noting that Jennette did not directly name Dan. However, as there have been several accusations against him in the past, people were quick to conclude that the former actress was referring to Dan.

This isn't the first time that Dan has been accused of such behavior. He was earlier accused of forcing young children, who were 18 to consume alcohol and give him shoulder massages.

However, when Dan responded to the allegations, he defended himself and said that he wouldn't have had so many reputable people's loyalties if he mistreated actors, especially minors.
