Harvey Weinstein, the disgraced cofounder and CEO of The Weinstein Company, has been fired effective immediately, his board of directors said on Sunday.
The statement said:
“In light of new information about misconduct by Harvey Weinstein that has emerged in the past few days, the directors of The Weinstein Company – Robert Weinstein, Lance Maerov, Richard Koenigsberg and Tarak Ben Ammar – have determined, and have informed Harvey Weinstein, that his employment with The Weinstein Company is terminated, effective immediately.”
The company has been under intense pressure since The New York Times broke an investigative story on Thursday detailing three decades of sexual misconduct, including propositioning actresses and harrassing female employees. More ugly stories continued to dribble out over the weekend, including a vulgar report by a news anchor that Weinstein masturbated in front of her and other stories of inappropriate propositions.

She was safe. Bill just does fat Jewish chicks and married women (put ice on it). Strom Thurmond had a black love child, but he supported her and eventually met her and admitted paternity. But he was dead by the time Obama’s daughter was old enough to intern.
There are more genuine and legitimate sources who have been confirmed and are on the record that should be cited regarding Hollywood and pedophilia (i.e. Elijah Wood).
When we cite fake news, it only de-legitimizes out case.
I didn't know that, thanks.
She was a beautiful young girl once, and now she looks like a walking mental hospital patient.
As I alluded to earlier, someone who went to high school with Ashley Judd said she was once a very sweet girl. They don't recognize who she has become (angry, unhinged, leftwing political).
There are some decent people in Hollywood, but I am convinced they are in the minority.
Rumors were his brother Bob was disgusted with the way Harveytreated women, female actors, and all the money the company had to pay out over the years because of his behavior. I’m sure Bob also saw the financial gains too. From what I heard this has been brewing for quite some time.
Judd claims she never succumbed to Weinstein's advances. I don't believe that, and I think Judd is hiding much of the truth. To admit that she had sex with him or gave him oral sex would not fit with her "feminist" image she has constructed for herself.
She is currently trying to earn a PhD from Berkeley, and wants to become a political figure.
Other women in Hollywood will not come forward because of the shame. Many, sadly, prostituted themselves for money and fame (and not just with Weinstein, the town is full of Weinsteins).
Thanks for the link. Michael Obama would not know a “wonderful human being” if he/she/it fell over one.
Thanks. It is true. And just as we have now learned with Weinstein, the media/Democrat/globalist cabal cover things up. This isn't "conspiracy" theory. It is fact.
Reporters who tried to expose Weinstein years ago were thwarted.
Why the Harvey Weinstein Sexual-Harassment Allegations Didn’t Come Out Until Now
There is also a young reporter who has tried to expose the pedophile rings for years. His name is David Seamen.
He is not some wack job. He was a liberal and a legitimate reporter who was fired from Huffington Post and other gigs because he would not tow the line. He also wrote for Investment Business Daily and other publications.
He is still trying to go after Hollywood, John Podesta, the Young Turks, the liberal media, and others.
He's on my list of prayers for that kind of “retribution!”
Pathetic statement from Streep...she never knew, sounds like the Germans who never knew about the gas chambers.
EXCLUSIVE: Meryl Streep Speaks Out Against Harvey Weinstein
She said the women who have spoken out against him are “heroes.”
Here’s Streep’s full statement:
“The disgraceful news about Harvey Weinstein has appalled those of us whose work he championed, and those whose good and worthy causes he supported. The intrepid women who raised their voices to expose this abuse are our heroes.
One thing can be clarified. Not everybody knew. Harvey supported the work fiercely, was exasperating but respectful with me in our working relationship, and with many others with whom he worked professionally. I didn’t know about these other offenses: I did not know about his financial settlements with actresses and colleagues; I did not know about his having meetings in his hotel room, his bathroom, or other inappropriate, coercive acts. And If everybody knew, I don’t believe that all the investigative reporters in the entertainment and the hard news media would have neglected for decades to write about it.
The behavior is inexcusable, but the abuse of power familiar. Each brave voice that is raised, heard and credited by our watchdog media will ultimately change the game.”
I wonder if all the women accepting Oscars will speak out against him?
Is this the same sick b$%^&* that had an office at the Pentagon and made it a point to try and make military bases “religion” free? If so, I want to start a petition to have his sorry butt kicked out of the Pentagon and all of his actions reversed!
Rumors were his brother Bob was disgusted with the way Harveytreated women, female actors, and all the money the company had to pay out over the years because of his behavior.
...
It’s good to see some people in Hollywood are disgusted by it. I wonder if his brother would have had the courage if the Clintons were in the White House.
Meryl Streep is a damn liar.
I knew. Who the hell am I? Just someone who lives in LA and heard from people with spider filament connections to The [precious] Industry??? And I knew he was a filthy pervy typical casting couch lech but MERYL STREEP HAD NO IDEA????
Riiiiight.
And she is SO SURE that if he had ever laid his thing on one girl, the PRESS WOULD HAVE BEEN ALL OVER IT????? you could die choking of laughter at that. Her solidarity with women ends the second she lands another overpaid gig.
No comment from Hillary! yet, obviously she never knew either.
And Hussein sends his daughter to “intern” with Harvey Swinestein, the pervert who visited the WH at least 13 times??
It amazes me how little these people know.
This would include the Pedophile ring that abused boy actors like Corey Haim for years. I'll bet he was on Pedophile Island with Bill Clinton.
Now old Harvey has announced he wants to dedicate all of his time to the utter destruction of the NRA. Good luck with that... I can see the NRA response ads now:
"PERVERT Harvey Weinstein wanted to take our DAUGHTER'S Honor away and now he wants to take away our GUNS!"
Ludicrous. I am sure he was on his best behavior. Whatever his faults are he is not stupid. He does not seem interested in black women/girls.
No one would want to molest Chelsea (shudder) and it could have been fatal.
Not a chance.
Stretch much?
I said about Harvey Weinstein: “All his awards must be taken down; all honors revoked. All who served with him must be disavowed. All his movies must be banned.”
No, I don't think that is a stretch. Moreover, all of Weinstein’s wealth should be stripped away but only if it can be proved that he misbehaved as reported.
As far as my comparing him to General Forrest: I stand rebuked. As a cavalry commander, General Forrest was associated with an entire horse.
All his movies must be banned.’’Fascist idiocy”
