There is a Big Story in Monday’s New York Times: “Harvey Weinstein’s Fall Opens Floodgates In Hollywood.” Except for the fact that not a single floodgate is open, that headline is deadly accurate.
There is a Big Story in Monday’s Hollywood Reporter: “‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Showrunner on Harassment in Hollywood: ‘It’s Not Just Harvey.’” Except for the fact that it is “just Harvey,” that headline is deadly accurate.
There is a Big Story in Monday’s Daily Mail: “Oscar-Winning Actor Accused of Assaulting a Broadcaster’s Loved One.” Except for the fact that not a single Oscar-winning actor is accused, that headline is deadly accurate.
There is a Big Story in Monday’s BBC: “How ‘MeToo’ is exposing the scale of sexual abuse.” Except for the fact that Alyssa Milano’s #MeToo hashtag is exposing absolutely no one, that headline is deadly accurate.
How can the New York Times claim the floodgates have opened when not a single name is named other than Harvey Weinstein? How can the Hollywood Reporter claim “it’s not just Harvey” when the only name named is Harvey? How can the Daily Mail claim an Oscar-winning actor has been accused of something when no Oscar-winning actor is named? How can the BBC claim that #MeToo is exposing something when no names are exposed?
Do not confuse this with a scold. I am not here to scold anyone. What it must be like to be a victim of sexual abuse is unimaginable. So I am not here to accuse or point fingers at those who have suffered through such a thing.
This is just me doing what I do, observing….
And what I am observing is a Hollywood culture already returning to the pre-Harvey days when abusers are enabled through silence.

I have a personal story from the late 70’s that will go to the grave with me.
I’m not looking for revenge.
