I think its the same thing we've talked about before, that bad behavior is more publicized and quickly reported these days. There have always been immoral, cruel people.

I also think it was more acceptable in olden days. People beat their kids, beat their animals. Beat their slaves. Sexual abuse was just not talked about. Some of the population has not evolved.
