Robert De Niro Subjected Female Employee to Creepy and Abusive Behavior: Lawsuit
NY Post ^ | 10/3/2019 | By Ruth Weissmann and Lia Eustachewich

Robert De Niro's alleged voicemail to Graham Chase Robinson Play Video Robert De Niro routinely subjected his longtime employee to creepy and abusive behavior, including leaving her voicemails threatening “you’re f—ing history” and calling her a “bitch” and a “brat,” an explosive new lawsuit charges.

Graham Chase Robinson says for years she was the victim of “gratuitous unwanted physical contact” from the Oscar winner, who also hurled “sexually-charged comments to her” when she worked at his production company, Canal Productions Inc.

Robinson’s allegations against the “Taxi Driver” star are levied in a lawsuit filed Thursday in Manhattan federal court for gender discrimination and wage violations.

She said she began working for Canal Productions in 2008 as an executive assistant and “forced to resign” in April after rising to the position of vice president of production and finance.

“Robert De Niro is someone who has clung to old mores. He does not accept the idea that men should treat women as equals,” the suit says. “He does not care that gender discrimination in the workplace violates the law. Ms. Robinson is a casualty of this attitude.”

He didn’t deserve the Oscar for Acting when he won for “Raging Bull”. He was just being himself in that movie. No need to act.

De Niro seems to be really low IQ.

All of his insults against Trump are so... mono-syllabic.

“He’s a pig, He’s a dog, He’s a mutt”.

Not exactly insightful.

phenomenal actor... but one only needs to look into his eyes and see his black soul. A sick man... like 99% of actors.

It’s only in the last 50 years actors were revered... historically, and I mean all the back to ancient Greece, acting was considered a low-brow, low-class profession held by low-class people. That’s the correct view.

Is this not the same “Raging Bull” who threatened to punch out Donald Trump’s lights?

Seem like there is a problem with “impulse control”, not only with the mouth, but in every waking moment. And who knows what his dream state may visualize.

DeNiro was also present at the Marmont the night Kathy Smith speedballed John Belushi.

He’s a total POS.

One of the best films of the 80's. Maybe he should have really one for "best performance by an asshole of another asshole"; but he was still great in it.

I know a lot of actors. I have worked with actors for 40 years. Your 99% comment isn’t accurate.

The woman: I worked previously for Rev. Franklin Graham. I sort of expected Mr.DeNiro would be kinda the same.
