What a creep Weinstein is.
Sometimes I wonder how news stories happen when they do.
For example, the Weinstein story exploded one day last month.
And people such as Meryl Streep professed to be just shocked, nobody knew, etc.
yet we can go back and see where Harvey Weinstein jokes were told in Academy Awards shows and TV sitcom dialogue. It was an open secret that Harvey Weinstein was the way he is.
So I wonder, how it is, that the NY Times decided to run stories about Weinstein to get the ball rolling? who decided to go after Weinstein?
A bit off topic, but we learned in retrospect that the Washington Post and Newsweek had the Lewinsky story, but sat on it for many months. It was Drudge who got the ball rolling on breaking the Lewinsky story when it broke.
So while I abhor what Weinstein has done, I think there’s an untold story, as to why the news media decided to go with his story at this time.
