So many in his shoes would take this advantage with
young attractive starlets wishing  to enhance their film careers --
Sometimes the temptation   is just too much .
Same with all people in positions of power , both male and female.
Every single day now i read of yet another  female teacher in court
for seducing their teenage pupils.
How many dont get caught -- we only see the tip of the iceberg.
Police in court too for "let off  favours" to law breakers.
I  would guess the vast majority get away with it .

That was to leopard's post.
Trust scissors to get in the way

Weinstein's wife is leaving him !

Sexual harassment allegations against Harvey Weinstein continue to mount after his wife announced she was leaving him and his most powerful allies, including Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, expressed disgust at his actions.

Georgina Chapman, co-founder of the Marchesa luxury brand and the mother of two of Weinstein’s children, said she was ending her 10-year marriage to the disgraced producer.

“My heart breaks for all the women who have suffered tremendous pain because of these unforgivable actions,” she said after three women accused her husband of rape and more stars including Angelina Jolie and Gwyneth Paltrow said he had sexually harassed them.

In a statement, Chapman, who founded Marchesa with design partner Keren Craig in 2004, added: “I have chosen to leave my husband. Caring for my young children is my first priority.”

I wonder if theres anyone left in Hollywood now that will defend him ?


Step forward - Lindsay Lohan


yep, that Lindsay Lohan who turned her back on her christian upbringing and converted to the most misogynistic, oppressive, woman-hating ideology on the planet

I can't believe this is even news.

Are people seriously suggesting if they were important in film/music they wouldn't ask aspiring singers/actresses for a blowy

Deary, deary, deary, deary me...Can you imagine the stooshie if he was The Donalds best buddy...

Five days after the New York Times broke the news that Weinstein, the head of Miramax and a major Democratic donor, faced a series of allegations of inappropriate behavior toward women over a several-decade span, neither Bill or Hillary Clinton nor Barack Obama has said a single word about the incidents.

What's remarkable about that silence is that Weinstein isn't, really, denying the allegations. In a long statement released in response to the Times story -- in which he quoted Jay Z and said he would take a leave of absence to focus on fighting the NRA -- Weinstein acknowledged: "I appreciate the way I've behaved with colleagues in the past has caused a lot of pain, and I sincerely apologize for it."
He's already been fired -- two days ago -- by the board of directors of The Weinstein Company "in light of new information about misconduct by Harvey Weinstein that has emerged in the past few days."
And, lots of Democrats who Weinstein gave money to over the years have either returned those donations or given them to charity.

All of which makes the silence from Obama and the Clintons all the more stark -- particularly because the trio's ties to Weinstein run deep.

Not only was he a major bundler of campaign cash for Obama and Clinton but he's also hosted a series of fundraisers at his various homes around the country over the years. In 2013, he hosted then-President Barack Obama for a fundraiser at his New York City apartment. In 2012, Obama did a fundraiser for his re-election bid at Weinstein's home in Connecticut. During the 2016 campaign, Weinstein held a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign at his New York City apartment and another with fashion mogul Anna Wintour.

In 2013, first lady Michelle Obama praised Weinstein for his involvement in a student film symposium at the White House. "I want to start by thanking Harvey Weinstein for organizing this amazing day," she said. "Harvey. This is possible because of Harvey. He is a wonderful human being, a good friend and just a powerhouse."

Malia Obama, the couple's daughter, interned at The Weinstein Company before starting college at Harvard this year.

Despite repeated inquiries from reporters in search of comment about the allegations against Weinstein, the offices of the Clintons and Obamas have remained mum. At an event at the University of California Davis promoting her book on Monday night, Clinton spoke for more than an hour but never mentioned Weinstein's name.

What explains the notable silence from the Obamas and the Clintons?

It seems everybody knew about Weinstein apart from the Clintons and Obamas.

Former president Barack Obama issued a statement Tuesday about the sexual assault scandal swirling around Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein – five days after it first became global news.

He condemned Weinstein on behalf of himself and former first lady Michelle Obama, but made no mention of the internship his teen daughter Malia took with the Weinstein Company this year when she was 18.

The former president also made no mention of whether he will return the $680,000 that Weinstein raised for his 2012 re-election campaign, or the millions he collected during $32,400-per plate fundraising dinners at his New York and California homes.

The Obamas have commented.
Clinton probably should keep quiet.
Two prominent Republican supporters have recently left Fox News over similar allegations,Ailes and O'Reilly,but it wasn't headline news over here. Well it wouldn't be would it ?

#hollywoodknew

This swamp is going to take some draining.

"Everyone knew about Saville as well...."

Yeah, same as with Savile, an open secret but a lot of people chose to ignore it and turned a blind eye. Harvey Weinstein has so many allegations against him, and one person speaks out, then huge escalation....... but lot of people knew before.

Has he fled the country?
Would imagine loads more will surface in the next few weeks.

Trump could get dragged into this !

just goes to show that these wannabes actors kept their mouths shut to be famous

Oscar winner Cate Blanchett has come forth to make a statement on the bombshell sexual assault statements against Harvey Weinstein.

“Any man in a position of power or authority who thinks it’s his prerogative to threaten, intimidate or sexually assault any woman he encounters or works alongside needs to be called to account. It is never easy for a woman to come forward in such situations and I wholeheartedly support those who have,” Blanchett said.

Blanchett who named one of her sons after the famous director Roman Polanski worked with the Weinstein Co. on films such as “Carol” and “The Aviator,” for which she won the best supporting actress Oscar.

Presumably some didn't.

That doesn't make it alright Atkins.

What is the matter with you?

Plenty of lawyers already ordering new private jets on the strength of this case I would imagine.

Brockville TV....where's that on the dial ?
