    Daryl Hannah has issued a scathing response to the new TV series about John F. Kennedy Jr. and wife Carolyn Bessette, denouncing the way she's been portrayed in the FX and Hulu show as false, damaging and misogynistic.

    "How Can 'Love Story' Get Away With This?" was the headline of the actor's guest essay Friday in the New York Times.

    "Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette" is a romantic look at the love affair and marriage of the famously stylish couple, who died in 1999 along with Bessette's sister, Lauren, when a small plane piloted by Kennedy crashed into the Atlantic on a hazy night.

    Hannah had dated Kennedy before he met and married Bessette, and is portrayed in what can only be described as a distinctly unflattering way in the series. The character is played by Dree Hemingway.

    "The character 'Daryl Hannah' portrayed in the series is not even a remotely accurate representation of my life, my conduct or my relationship with John," Hannah, 65, wrote. "The actions and behaviors attributed to me are untrue."

    She went on to refute specific actions attributed to her character, who appears in the first three episodes. "I have never used cocaine in my life or hosted cocaine-fueled parties," Hannah wrote. "I have never pressured anyone into marriage. I have never desecrated any family heirloom or intruded upon anyone's private memorial.

    "I have never planted any story in the press," she continued. "I never compared Jacqueline Onassis' death to a dog's. It's appalling to me that I even have to defend myself against a television show."

    FX said it had no immediate comment on Hannah's charges.

    Hannah is not the first to bitterly criticize the show and accuse producers, especially executive producer... Read More
