I thought his discussion of how it came to be that the New Yorker published the story was quite interesting.

I think Mrs. Weinstein is a happy camper today. Wish I sold yachts or luxury automobiles. LOL

Media also covered up JFK’s affairs, including sharing a mistress with a Mafia don.

Oh, please. Mia’s baby genius did what lots of people do - he got a scoop.

NBC told him to take it elsewhere.

A story detailing a sex scandal involving Donald Trump? I was not aware of one. What are they referring to?

I would say the actress who went to the police in 2015 and then wore a wire for them the next day only to have then say that it was "inconclusive" deserves a bit of praise as well.

This is not the modern equivalent of Woodward and Bernstein exposing Watergate. Harvey was the poorly concealed vulgar elephant in the Hollywood room. Not exactly a startling discovery. Ronan was threatened with a lawsuit if he printed an article. Big deal. That happens all the time too.

I think Ronan wants to use this event as a vehicle for more face time on camera. Do what you gotta do to stay famous, Ronan. I guess you see that trashing Woody Allen in the press only takes you so far.

Gotta admit it’s the first useful thing he’s done in his useless life.

I thought the Waxman reporterette was first with the story.

Credit is also due to the New Yorker for publishing Farrow’s article. (And no one should let up on NBC for passing on the story!)

Has anyone heard from Chris Dodd, former Senator, notorious partner of Teddy in the waitress sandwich incident, and until recently the face of Hollywood as head of the Motion Picture Association? His tenure at MPAA overlaps much of Weinstein’s reign of terror. Given Chris’ own proclivities are we to believe that he knew nothing?

How soon before Weinstein team announce that he is seeing a spiritual/sex adviser?

Paging Jesse Jackson?

Ronan’s politics differ from mine completely but I see him as honest and I love how he fought back against the pedophilia of his fake father. For his little sister, he took on all of Hollywood with big brass ones. Especially after his fake father Woody Allen won some award on a show and got huge applause. And Hollywood didn’t listen. They’re listening now, Farrow. Watch your back and BRAVO.

Donald Trump

What "sex scandal"? Having a vulgar conversation with a celebrity gossip reporter is not a "sex scandal".

His New Yorker article did not include his daddy, Woody, or BJ Clinton as serial abusers/rapists, although the article was well written.

And, just like that, the article has been pulled from the Weekly Standard.

Linky is dead.

Instead we see this: Editor's Note

Perhaps someone's lawyer contacted them and threatened to sue?
