Harvey Weinstein sexually assaults women

Interesting to see how there is this difference in opinion over what he did:

https://www.yahoo.com/gma/harvey-we...-mistakes-114506078--abc-news-topstories.html

From Weinstein's representative:

“Mr. Weinstein obviously can’t speak to anonymous allegations, but with respect to any women who have made allegations on the record, Mr. Weinstein believes that all of these relationships were consensual.

Rose McGowen:

"HW raped me."

Asia Argento:

“I was not willing,” she said. “I said, ‘No, no, no.’ . . . It’s twisted. A big fat man wanting to eat you. It’s a scary fairy tale.” After, Argento said she told Weinstein, “I am not a whore” — at which, she claimed, he laughed.

Her silence was out of fear and self-loathing, said Argento. “The thing with being a victim is I felt responsible. Because if I were a strong woman, I would have kicked him in the balls and run away. But I didn’t. And so I felt responsible.”

Personally, I think he's a lying bastard, but it's interesting to see the PR spin he's been trying to put on.

Why? It's not like it's something we've never seen before. Anytime anyone with even the smallest amount of 'power' gets caught doing shit they send out the pr gang. And one 'self defense' pr campaign is pretty much like every other 'self defense' pr campaign. <shrug>
 
I just don't understand, he hates President Trump, he supports Hillary Clinton, he hates the NRA. What's not to like? It wasn't as if it was harassment, harassment or rape, rape or that any of the media outlets spiked the story for the last 10 years. He's a victim of a vast right wing conspiracy.

Well for starters, he's taking down a bunch of notable people with him. Like Hilary for example:

“Know what Hillary Clinton is NOT? She’s not stupid. Or unsophisticated about the world. The Weinstein stories had been out there for years.”

CNN said:

“This is a real blot on the records of both the Obama and Clinton families, that they were so blind to this – willfully blind – for so long.”

But maybe that's why you think this is a non-issue? If so, keep your head buried in the sand.

Well shit that's the important thing. That we can tar our political opponents for the actions of someone else. His victims will rest easy knowing that their sacrifices weren't in vain.

Ah, I see, it's not actually about Weinstein you just want to roll in the shit. Well, have fun with that.
 
I thought it was hilarious that Seth MacFarlane actually joked about Weinstein's conquests during the Oscars in 2013, completely straight faced, and no one mentioned it again. Apparently his girlfriend/Ted costar at the time was one of Weinstein's targets.

Who gives a rats ass it he hates the NRA? His story is just like Roger Ailes and Bill Cosby. How about showing concern about the inherent sexism that fosters a climate where women have to shutup just to have a career? They should't have to put up with this kind of bullshit. You what the wrong answer is to this? "The women can just leave and find another career" Guess who gave that sage advice?

BTW - I don't know for sure but knowing your penchant for tribal tourrettes, I'd be willing to bet you criticized Gretchen Carlson for filing a suit against Fox News and Ailes. Turns out she has more courage in her finger then your body ever will.
 
HW is a piece of work. Saw story where he grabbed Terry Crews by the nuts right in front of Crew's wife. Terry wanted to kill him right there but he knew what the headlines would have said the next day. Big black guy beats up movie exec. Taj and Ackmed posting about how black thugs beat up white people. 🙂 Same story for him, wanted a career. Crews starred in Everybody Hates Chris and is a former NFL player. He's a big dude.
 
I for one was completely shocked to find out that a Hollywood mogul abused his position in order to get laid. I'm just glad we have a bastion of morality in the White House that can stand up to these predators. I was so wrong about the election. Thank you, conservatives, for helping the nation avoid complete catastrophe.

I heard somebody grabbed Terry, but I didn't hear it was HW. Got a link?
