Since many years, Yashar Ali has repeatedly slandered Woody Allen. For example, check his lies on Twitter about the manipulative hit-job aired on HBO:
1. Last night, I watched the 4 part HBO doc “Allen vs Farrow” about child abuse allegations against Woody Allen
It premieres tonight
“Compelling” is overused but I can’t think of any other word in this case. Lots of new evidence presented from video/audio, court records

There are no new evidence presented from video/audio, court records. You should read “‘Allen v. Farrow’: Intellectually Dishonest Propaganda Meets Emotional Blackmail” by Cathy Young.
2. It also features interviews with Dylan, Mia, and Ronan Farrow, other family and friends.
Included are new interviews with people like Frank Maco, the prosecutor who said there was probable cause but declined to prosecute due to his desire to spare Dylan the trauma of a trial.

Prosecutor Frank Maco’s full statement contradicts his claim to have a “probable cause” (he never said which one) to prosecute Woody Allen.
3. It does not, however, have any interviews with Woody Allen, Soon Yi Previn, or Moses Farrow. They all declined to participate. It does include audio clips from Woody Allen’s 2020 audio book and other interviews with him.

They were all contacted few weeks before the airing on HBO and Dick and Ziering have the final cut. Here is Woody Allen and Soon-Yi Previn official statement :
These documentarians had no interest in the truth. Instead, they spent years surreptitiously collaborating with the Farrows and their enablers to put together a hatchet job riddled with falsehoods. Woody and Soon-Yi were approached less than two months ago and given only a matter of days ‘to respond. Of course, they declined to do so.
As has been known for decades, these allegations are categorically false. Multiple agencies investigated them at the time and found that, whatever Dylan Farrow may have been led to believe, absolutely no abuse had ever taken place. It is sadly unsurprising that the network to air this is HBO – which has a standing production deal and business relationship with Ronan Farrow. While this shoddy hit piece may gain attention, it does not change the facts.
4. One of the other important parts of this documentary is the reminder of Woody Allen’s obsession with very young women. Is that criminal behavior? Absolutely not, but it’s just gross from my perspective and also speaks to his character.

One more lie, based on Richard Morgan’s Jan. 7 Outlook essay about Woody Allen on The Washington Post.
5. I always felt his relationship with Soon Yi-Previn, while legal, to be incredibly inappropriate and representative of who he is.
That on its own is enough for me.
Dylan Farrow’s story is compelling and credible. And she has way more evidence on her side than he does.

Dylan Farrow’s story is not compelling and not credible at all. She is a proven liar and has zero evidence on her side, all the facts – ALL – are on Woody Allen’s side.

A true documentary on Woody Allen
Far from the HBO lying by omission from the beginning to the end, watch on YouTube “By The Way, Woody Allen is Innocent” by Rick Worley (more than 230.000 views and superlative reviews on IMDB).
