There’s a lot to be said about the New Yorker’s big, multi-sourced expose of how New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman has abused four different women – as I have documented at length, Schneiderman is one of President Trump’s bitterest longtime antagonists and a self-styled leader of “The Resistance” – but one point that I keep thinking about is how Ronan Farrow, one of the piece’s authors and a key figure in the downfall of Harvey Weinstein, has truly found his calling as a print journalist exposing sexual abuse. What is particularly striking is the contrast with Farrow’s original, failed journalistic career as a MSNBC television personality.
Farrow, the son of Mia Farrow and (his own mother leaves doubt as to this) either Woody Allen or Frank Sinatra, initially had a too-easy path up the ladder: he got a UNICEF gig in his mother’s footsteps at 14, graduated college at 15, got a job in the Obama Administration out of law school at 22, and was on air on MSNBC at 27. He’s a smart guy, as his educational credentials (including Yale Law and a Rhodes Scholarship) attest, but came off on TV as shallow and callow, a guy who was handed things for his good looks and family name and connections.

It’s Hollywood......................
Mark Simone is reporting that the material on Weinstein & Schneiderman was “bundled” and handed to Farrow. Which is what we always suspected.
His mom was briefly my neighbor, back when she was married to Andre Previn. Not so glamorous when you see her at 7-eleven buying a half-gallon of milk in sweats.
None of us are....................
The enemy of my enemy is my friend....................
What are you going on about? Do you have some bet on Ronan’s DNA?
re lineage:
This could all be confirmed or ruled out via DNA.
And I am sure that Ronan knows enough to know the real answer.
After all, he is a REAL journalist, (for now, at least).
I was agreeing with you...............someone is feeding him info, and usually it’s the enemy of the person in question.
They see Ronan as a friendly, if unconventional, place to leak their info on their enemy.
As I posted earlier, Ronan is playing a very dangerous game.......................
Its shameful that the media and politicos were telling Ronan not report this stuff, as they have been sitting on it for years because democrat party uber alles.
They were probably involved in the sexual shenanigans themselves................
And IIRC, no he didn't graduate from college at 15.
And he looks abolutely nothing at all like Frank S.! And the whole Frank thing was NEVER mentioned, not even once, until Satchel/Ronan was an adult.
Someone else said that that was the story, re the Weinstein stuff, when that all happened. So no way did he do ANYTHING at all re the new supposed outing of the POS Schneiderman. And Trump, as well as many others, have known about the Schneid's "dark secrets, for many, many, many years.
I am sure that now that he has broken a big story on this, and now two, more women will be willing to open up... knowing they can trust him to tell their story.
Success, breeds success.

I’ve been wondering about the college claim of this kid for a long time. My feelings were always that if he was so bright, why wasn’t he working at MIT or in medical/scientific research? Why was he talking about British African-Americans on MSNBC if he was so smart?
People are shoveling this stuff at him right and left. Maybe he is collating the material with Mommy at his side. We all know she is obsessed with women being treated badly by men. Sort of the way Previn treated Dorie.
My brother looks like my mother's grandfather...not our maternal grandfather. Sometimes this skips a generation. But Ronan looks just like his mother and maternal grandfather, which, according to Mendel, IS very usual!
It seems as though the stories about Ronan have been expanded and changed, these past few years. I wonder what the TRUTH of it all really is.
I have a friend (now deceased) who went to Bard - probably in the 50s. I don’t know much about it but thanks for the update.
We need a New Yorker article to get to the bottom of Ronan.
