Nick Viall, the former Bachelor star and the host of The Viall Files, is facing huge backlash for his comments about the actor Justin Baldoni. In a recent episode of Juicy Scoop, comedian Heather McDonald asked Nick about his strong opinions against Justin. Many fans think that these opinions and comments lack any solid proof; hence, they are baseless.
Nick Viall and his fiancée, Natalie Joy, have been quite vocal in their support of Blake Lively, who accused Justin Baldoni of harassment and misconduct. But as the legal case between Justin, Blake, and Ryan Reynolds continues, fans are questioning Nick's role in pushing these allegations.
On Juicy Scoop, Nick tried to push off the comments, but the host Heather didn't really let him off that easily.
She pointed out that Nick Viall has a habit of dismissing people who tend to oppose him or disagree with him, while on the other hand Heather listens to both sides. Fans really praised Heather for keeping an open mind and not assuming anything without proper evidence.

Nick Viall's Claims and Heather's Response
Nick Viall said and quoted,
“I just had a feeling he wasn’t the person he so loudly portrayed himself to be.”
after he interviewed him. But there was no proof against Justin that Nick could present. Nick kept comparing Justin to someone from his past who turned out to be a predator and supported Blake. Heather quickly opposed this and asked Nick to back up his claims with evidence and not just gut feelings because that is vague.
Nick also questioned Baldoni's decision of hiring crisis manager Melissa Natha, known for representing Johnny Depp during the entire Amber Heard controversy.
Unlike Nick, Heather has personal experience with harassment and even released audio proof of her own case. Yet, she doesn't assume all accusations that sound similar to hers are true, just because of her past. Fans appreciated her for treating each case separately and relying on evidence.
Fans Demand Evidence from Nick Viall
The difference in opinion of Nick from the rest has led the fans to call him out. His comments on Justin are "unfair" and "absolutely pointless," as per the critics. They believe that Nick is simply pushing a guilty-until-proven view, which is not the right thing to do. Netizens are saying that if someone accuses another person, they need to show evidence first. The accusations can't be based on personal feelings or opinions.

Fans want fair discussions, not baseless accusations. This podcast with Heather has made her earn respect, while Nick has faced criticism and backlash.
