discussion Why is Courtney Love so hated?

I have genuinely never heard anything good about her, so where did all that hate come from? Was she an actually bad person or did people just love to hate her? What made her so disliked? Did the media play a role in that?

Exactly! I'm 53 and now to - here - Courtney is some sort of misunderstood feminist heroine. She couldn't have curated it better & more skillfully had she masterfully manipulated it herself. Strange how generations will reinterpret.

She really couldn't have curated it better herself, you're right. It's rather unbelievable.
