Why is this Weinstein mess coming on the scene at this particular time? He’s been molesting starlets for decades so why now? What are we supposed to be distracted from?

What he means is “I hope I’m not the next one fingered”.

I’ve seen some interesting theories besides the freeper who said Harv’s brother’s behind it:

1) The Fraud’s daughter interned with him. Groped, or set him up?

2) Harv’s recently announced allegiance to Israel and his pro-Israel Mila 18 movie — Hollywood hates Israel.

Heartbroken, YES. Now Tarantino has to watch who he “invites” to the casting couch as well.

“Why is this Weinstein mess coming on the scene at this particular time? “

Some of us have been asking that. Sheryl Atkinson raised the question yesterday on Medved’s radio show, pointing out all the earmarks of a smear campaign are at work.

First thought was a take over of the company, but now it looks like the company might be all but dead within a month since projects are being pulled right and left.

I’m wondering the same. I thought that the only way a Hollywood lefty could get savaged this bad was if they switched to the right.

“Tamblyn has made her own allegations of sexual misconduct in recent weeks, claiming on Twitter that actor James Woods had tried to pick her up her when she was 16. After Woods denied the claims, Tamblyn wrote an open letter to him detailing the circumstances around their encounter.”

Sooo, now we see the hidden agenda of the Marxocrats. Any allegation made, no matter how preposterous, must now be taken as gospel truth never to be questioned, with the mere accusation itself confirming the guilt of anyone so accused. Expect every figure sympathetic to the right wing will be pulled in to the ensuing undertow and hung out to dry, defenestrating anyone supportive of the evil Trump. It is always thus...

Then there's how Fonda attempts to deflect and spread the blame around to other areas of society:

Fonda also echoed comments made by Emma Thompson, saying that the allegations against Weinstein were part of a larger culture of sexual abuse. “In business, science, academia, government, it’s the entitlement of too many men and it is [an] epidemic,” she said.

No, Jane, it is NOT. Go back to sleep.

If any of these idiots are heartbroken about the actions of their peers (not just the publishing of the actions), they’d be rattling off names of other rapists in their business to avoid being associated with rapists and abusers in the future. There is ZERO chance that Weinstein was the only scumbag, and ZERO chance that Tarantino and so many others don’t know names.

I could understand not wanting to name people (especially friends) publicly based on rumors. But, if the group of “heartbroken” hollywood elitists (i.e. Tarantino) went to them directly and said “get out before we have to go through this embarrassment with you” they could clean up a lot of “embarrassments”. If we don’t see some “voluntary retirements”, then nobody in hollywood is actually ‘heartbroken’ over Weinstein’s actions, only that he got caught. And they are enabling others to repeat the actions.

It's a holocaust picture.

If Hollywood hated holocaust movies this scandal would have happened years ago.

It is kind of a surprise that Harvey never produced a movie about that subject, though his company was involved with at least one.

“Why is this Weinstein mess coming on the scene at this particular time? He’s been molesting starlets for decades so why now? What are we supposed to be distracted from?”

I think it has something to do with the dismantling of Obamacare, DACA being repealed, taxes in the works to be lowered, a wall that’s starting construction and the tough stand on North Korea. Someone had to do something to take all the oxygen out of the room and Weinstein took one for the team.

As bad as Weinstein is, this still won’t get Hillary into the White House.
