I suspect his advocacy is sincere in his mind and also absolves, again in his mind, some of his conduct. But it shouldn't shock us that people are inherently contradictory or can be both horrible and positive at the same time. |
Phony. Fake. Hollywood is messed up. Roman Polanski. Woody Allen |
In his mind all the little people need to behave - but he believes no rules or laws apply to him. Those donations were to keep the little people in line. He feels entitled to being able to abuse women. It is scary how much power this man has held for decades. |
I hope some corageous journalist is brave enough to do this with the Corey accusations. |
Filmmaker Scott Derrickson said that he " expected the Hollywood elite will remain largely silent about Weinstein. Me I give zero f***s about the repercussions for condemning him"
Finally a man that will stand up for women against this way too powerful man and industry. All elite who remain silent are part of the problem. Clooney is married to a human rights attorney yet he has hailed Weinstein for years. Those who are afraid of repercussions are letting abuse happen. |
Have people never watched Ray Donovan or even Entourage? He’s had a horrible reputation for decades!!!! His outbursts and stories have inspired several characters on these and other shows. Where have you people been hiding to not know he’s a scumbag with a horrible temper?! |
He has been allowed to operate as a sexual predator because of his POWER. Obama didn't seem to mind his daughter interning at his company. HRC didn't mind going to his personal home in Manhattan for an elite fundraiser. Blind eyes for the rich and powerful. |
What? Like people look the other way with pussygrabber trump? Take this to the politics forum. There are scumbags on both sides of the political spectrum. |
I am pretty sure the Stu Feldman character on Ray Donovan is largely based on Harvey Weinstein, here is an example (and this is from showtime and its NSFW so you’ve been warned). He’s a total dirtbag.

Sorry, PP here, and forgot to add in Entourage the tv show, they didn’t even try to hid it. The character was named Harvey Weingard, and rumor was Weinstein was super pissed about it. Go Marky Mark!

I mentioned their names because they are hugely connected to Weinstein. The spotlight is on Weinstein and his friends that support him and vice versa with their hypocrisy. They are all liberals. I do believe that men of all socioeconomic backgrounds, religious affiliations, political affiliations abuse women. Women have to be afraid walking on a street alone at night or going for a job interview in Hollywood. The crisis in our world for thousands of years has been the abuse of women and children by men. It takes real men to stand up and fight for women and children. |
I cannot wait to see Meryl Streep use her celebrity voice to chastise him - by name -and all of his complicit associates next time she has the chance at a podium to voice support for women's issues and rights. And all the other celebrity pussy hat wearers and marchers. Oh wait, what? Cat got your tongue? |
Is he still married to Georgena Chapman? |
Yes |
Agreed. |
