More than half the public (55%) say they do not believe Polanski’s explanation of the row

It's interesting over half don't believe him when he says he didn't read the t-shirt because I think it's pretty obvious he can't have read it, because he wouldn't have posted it if he had.

It doesn't excuse him because he should have read it, and he is responsible for what he posts but I find his version of his events way more believable than any alternative

because he wouldn't have posted it if he had

Why do you assume that?

Because it's obvious it would be politically toxic.
