Decades of Sexual Harassment Accusations Against Harvey Weinstein
New York Times ^ | Oct. 5, 2016 | B JODI KANTOR and MEGAN TWOHEY

Two decades ago, the Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein invited Ashley Judd to the Peninsula Beverly Hills hotel for what the young actress expected to be a business breakfast meeting. Instead, he had her sent up to his room, where he appeared in a bathrobe and asked if he could give her a massage or she could watch him shower, she recalled in an interview.

Re: Decades of Sexual Harassment Accusations Against Harvey Weinstein

"I denies many of the accusations... as patently false."

"Without a doubt, sugar, cause... when I offer him a full naked rubdown, he said, 'No, thanks. Ashley is doing a bang up job.'"

BTW if found guilty, I've got the proper lifetime sentence:

No-- No-- Noooooo... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Wow, some actual journalism from the Times, and about a liberal, too. Someone’s gonna get fired.

Apparently, Weinstein follows that old Jewish adage, “Never ask for permission, ask for forgiveness.”

Let’s you do a lot of sh*t.

“Attorney Lisa Bloom, who many times worked to try to bring down powerful men, is making all kinds of excuses for Harvey Weinstein. Just shows what a w-h-o-r-e Lisa Bloom is (not to mention her mama Gloria Allred).”

Secular Progressive Jewish Lawyers don’t go after Secular Progressive Jewish Film Producers. Reason: They are both despicable snakes and it’s considered “professional courtesy” not to attempt to bite one another.

“As her time in the White House comes to a close, the eldest daughter of President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama has landed a highly sought-after post-high-school gig. She is reportedly set to intern for prolific film producer Harvey Weinstein beginning in February, The Hollywood Reporter confirmed.”

I guess Harvey is looking for some young, black poontang! Harvey
Weinstein is the “white” equivalent of Bill Cosby,

That's what lawyers do. If you ever seriously need one, you may need somebody who can convincingly argue totally different (and opposite) things in different trials. They aren't nice people, but if you're in trouble, you need a pit bull.

we absolutely know that howood is full of perverts and also know the richer people get, the more emboldened they are to use people as objects...

so creepy Ashley Judd kept this secret all to herself all these years, while demeaning any conservative, or moral, or republican she could with her feminist rant...

so look in the mirror Judd....you allowed this....

Just another fat Hollywood cokehead destined to die on the toilet.

True, but they should still be ethical, and Bloom and her mother aren’t the least bit ethical or honest. There is a difference. The other part of it is to never do anything that causes you to need a shyster. I spent about 18 months in Probate Court handling my mother’s modest estate. I have seen it all! Probate Court is where all the legal vultures congregate to pick the remaining flesh off the dead.

I do realize that, but she and her mama have made particular careers as feminist crusaders, so it is certainly striking to see her serving as hired gun for a sleaze like Harvey Weinstein. But this is all very entertaining!!

I hope that Weinstein AND the NY Times get shafted as fully as possible in this. Maybe loads of sordid revelations about Weinstein but the NY Times loses anyway, ha ha.

The Obamas picked good role models for their children. Beyonce and Weinstien. I guess as long as they have gobs of money and hob nob with others with gobs of money that makes them a ok in the Obama world. Those two were often portrayed by the media as the best parents in the world. Funny, how their staged appearances with the daughters always looked strained and fake.

Harvey had to put up with Malaria 0bama during her internship.

I suspect Harvey to call in a favor from Barry Soetoro

Harvey Weinstein is one of the most nauseatingly unsexy creatures on the planet. The “EEEEEWWWWWWW!!!!!” factor is off the end of a chart that hasn’t even been invented yet.

Did Harvey stop paying protection money to the Democrats?

Coincidentally, Lisa Bloom has a book the Weinstein company is making into film.

This shows the real power in the DemonShit party lies with the radical feminists. Cross them, regardless of your race, religion, wealth and power, or sexual orientation, and you get screwed.
