Harvey Weinstein

There are decent Jews, there are poor Jews, there are even decent rich Jews but a substantial number are thoroughly unpleasant rogues on the make, thieves, destroyers, Psychopaths, mass murderers, Paedophiles et cetera. Harvey Weinstein is an example of the worst sort, a foul mouthed bully and Racist full of hate for White Men; that is why he enjoys humiliating beautiful young women.

Perhaps the point to take is that none of this is news. Everyone who is anyone in Hollywood knew about the swine but then most of them are Jews too.
Addendum: Steve Sailer tells us that Weinstein used Bribery to buy off his victims - see The Overlord of Oscar Bait. So does #The New Yorker in #Harvey Weinstein's Army Of Spies

Why did Weinstein do it? Being a deeply sincere oaf was part of it, so was having power but the real driver was hate - see e.g. Harvey Weinstein Revenge and Domination as Jewish Motives. Too many Jews are Psychopaths & Paranoid to boot.

Tina Brown, an English journalist knew the swine, in fact she worked for him so she writes with some degree of authority about What Harvey and Trump have in common. A fat, ugly Paranoid bully and Psychopath sounds right to me. NB She puts the boot into Donald Trump and keeps VERY quiet about Weinstein being a Jew. She knows which side her bread is buttered on. Truth comes down the line.

Harvey Weinstein's Army Of Spies
QUOTE

In the fall of 2016, Harvey Weinstein set out to suppress allegations that he had sexually harassed or assaulted numerous women. He began to hire private security agencies to collect information on the women and the journalists trying to expose the allegations. According to dozens of pages of documents, and seven people directly involved in the effort, the firms that Weinstein hired included Kroll [ Jew owned ], which is one of the world’s largest corporate-intelligence companies, and Black Cube, an enterprise run largely by former officers of Mossad and other Israeli intelligence agencies. Black Cube, which has branches in Tel Aviv, London, and Paris, offers its clients the skills of operatives “highly experienced and trained in Israel’s elite military and governmental intelligence units,” according to its literature.

Two private investigators from Black Cube, using false identities, met with the actress Rose McGowan, who eventually publicly accused Weinstein of rape, to extract information from her. One of the investigators pretended to be a women’s-rights advocate and secretly recorded at least four meetings with McGowan. The same operative, using a different false identity and implying that she had an allegation against Weinstein, met twice with a journalist to find out which women were talking to the press. In other cases, journalists directed by Weinstein or the private investigators interviewed women and reported back the details.

The explicit goal of the investigations, laid out in one contract with Black Cube, signed in July, was to stop the publication of the abuse allegations against Weinstein that eventually emerged in the New York Times and The New Yorker. Over the course of a year, Weinstein had the agencies “target,” or collect information on, dozens of individuals, and compile psychological profiles that sometimes focussed on their personal or sexual histories. Weinstein monitored the progress of the investigations personally. He also enlisted former employees from his film enterprises to join in the effort, collecting names and placing calls that, according to some sources who received them, felt intimidating.

In some cases, the investigative effort was run through Weinstein’s lawyers, including David Boies, a celebrated attorney who represented Al Gore in the 2000 Presidential-election dispute and argued for marriage equality before the U.S. Supreme Court. Boies personally signed the contract directing Black Cube to attempt to uncover information that would stop the publication of a Times story about Weinstein’s abuses, while his firm was also representing the Times, including in a libel case.

Boies confirmed that his firm contracted with and paid two of the agencies and that investigators from one of them sent him reports, which were then passed on to Weinstein. He said that he did not select the firms or direct the investigators’ work. He also denied that the work regarding the Times story represented a conflict of interest. Boies said that his firm’s involvement with the investigators was a mistake. “We should not have been contracting with and paying investigators that we did not select and direct,” he told me. “At the time, it seemed a reasonable accommodation for a client, but it was not thought through, and that was my mistake. It was a mistake at the time.”

Techniques like the ones used by the agencies on Weinstein’s behalf are almost always kept secret, and, because such relationships are often run through law firms, the investigations are theoretically protected by attorney-client privilege, which could prevent them from being disclosed in court. The documents and sources reveal the tools and tactics available to powerful individuals to suppress negative stories and, in some cases, forestall criminal investigations.

In a statement, Weinstein’s spokesperson, Sallie Hofmeister, said, “It is a fiction to suggest that any individuals were targeted or suppressed at any time.”

In May, 2017, McGowan received an e-mail from a literary agency introducing her to a woman who identified herself as Diana Filip, the deputy head of sustainable and responsible investments at Reuben Capital Partners, a London-based wealth-management firm. Filip told McGowan that she was launching an initiative to combat discrimination against women in the workplace, and asked McGowan, a vocal women’s-rights advocate, to speak at a gala kickoff event later that year. Filip offered McGowan a fee of sixty thousand dollars. “I understand that we have a lot in common,” Filip wrote to McGowan before their first meeting, in May, at the Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills. Filip had a U.K. cell-phone number, and she spoke with what McGowan took to be a German accent. Over the following months, the two women met at least three more times at hotel bars in Los Angeles and New York and other locations. “I took her to the Venice boardwalk and we had ice cream while we strolled,” McGowan told me, adding that Filip was “very kind.” The two talked at length about issues relating to women’s empowerment. Filip also repeatedly told McGowan that she wanted to make a significant investment in McGowan’s production company.

Filip was persistent. In one e-mail, she suggested meeting in Los Angeles and then, when McGowan said she would be in New York, Filip said she could meet there just as easily. She also began pressing McGowan for information. In a conversation in July, McGowan revealed to Filip that she had spoken to me as part of my reporting on Weinstein. A week later, I received an e-mail from Filip asking for a meeting and suggesting that I join her campaign to end professional discrimination against women. “I am very impressed with your work as a male advocate for gender equality, and believe that you would make an invaluable addition to our activities,” she wrote, using her wealth-management firm’s e-mail address. Unsure of who she was, I did not respond.

Filip continued to meet with McGowan. In one meeting in September, Filip was joined by another Black Cube operative, who used the name Paul and claimed to be a colleague at Reuben Capital Partners. The goal, according to two sources with knowledge of the effort, was to pass McGowan to another operative to extract more information. On October 10th, the day The New Yorker published my story about Weinstein, Filip reached out to McGowan in an e-mail. “Hi Love,” she wrote. “How are you feeling? . . . Just wanted to tell you how brave I think you are.” She signed off with an “xx.” Filip e-mailed McGowan as recently as October 23rd.

In fact, “Diana Filip” was an alias for a former officer in the Israeli Defense Forces who originally hailed from Eastern Europe and was working for Black Cube, according to three individuals with knowledge of the situation. When I sent McGowan photos of the Black Cube agent, she recognized her instantly. “Oh my God,” she wrote back. “Reuben Capital. Diana Filip. No fucking way.”

Ben Wallace, a reporter at New York who was pursuing a story on Weinstein, said that the same woman met with him twice last fall. She identified herself only as Anna and suggested that she had an allegation against Weinstein. When I presented Wallace with the same photographs of Black Cube’s undercover operative, Wallace recalled her vividly. “That’s her,” he said. Like McGowan, Wallace said that the woman had what he assumed to be a German accent, as well as a U.K. cell-phone number. Wallace told me that Anna first contacted him on October 28, 2016, when he had been working on the Weinstein story for about a month and a half. Anna declined to disclose who had given her Wallace’s information. Over the course of the two meetings, Wallace grew increasingly suspicious of her motives. Anna seemed to be pushing him for information, he recalled, “about the status and scope of my inquiry, and about who I might be talking to, without giving me any meaningful help or information.” During their second meeting, Anna requested that they sit close together, leading Wallace to suspect that she might be recording the exchange. When she recounted her experiences with Weinstein, Wallace said, “it seemed like soap-opera acting.” Wallace wasn’t the only journalist the woman contacted. In addition to her e-mails to me, Filip also e-mailed Jodi Kantor, of the Times, according to sources involved in the effort.

The U.K. cell-phone numbers that Filip provided to Wallace and McGowan have been disconnected. Calls to Reuben Capital Partners’ number in London went unanswered. As recently as Friday, the firm had a bare-bones Web site, with stock photos and generic text passages about asset management and an initiative called Women in Focus. The site, which has now been taken down, listed an address near Piccadilly Circus, operated by a company specializing in shared office space. That company said that it had never heard of Reuben Capital Partners. Two sources with knowledge of Weinstein’s work with Black Cube said that the firm creates fictional companies to provide cover for its operatives, and that Filip’s firm was one of them.

Black Cube declined to comment on the specifics of any work it did for Weinstein. The agency said in a statement, “It is Black Cube’s policy to never discuss its clients with any third party, and to never confirm or deny any speculation made with regard to the company’s work. Black Cube supports the work of many leading law firms around the world, especially in the US, gathering evidence for complex legal processes, involving commercial disputes, among them uncovering negative campaigns. . . . It should be highlighted that Black Cube applies high moral standards to its work, and operates in full compliance with the law of any jurisdiction in which it operates—strictly following the guidance and legal opinions provided by leading law firms from around the world.” The contract with the firm also specified that all of its work would be obtained “by legal means and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.”

Last fall, Weinstein began mentioning Black Cube by name in conversations with his associates and attorneys. The agency had made a name for itself digging up information for companies in Israel, Europe, and the U.S. that led to successful legal judgments against business rivals. But the firm has also faced legal questions about its employees’ use of fake identities and other tactics. Last year, two of its investigators were arrested in Romania on hacking charges. In the end, the company reached an agreement with the Romanian authorities, under which the operatives admitted to hacking and were released. Two sources familiar with the agency defended its decision to work for Weinstein, saying that they originally believed that the assignment focussed on his business rivals. But even the earliest lists of names that Weinstein provided to Black Cube included actresses and journalists.

On October 28, 2016, Boies’s law firm, Boies Schiller Flexner, wired to Black Cube the first hundred thousand dollars, toward what would ultimately be a six-hundred-thousand-dollar invoice. (The documents do not make clear how much of the invoice was paid.) The law firm and Black Cube signed a contract that month and several others later. One, dated July 11, 2017, and bearing Boies’s signature, states that the project’s “primary objectives” are to “provide intelligence which will help the Client’s efforts to completely stop the publication of a new negative article in a leading NY newspaper” and to “obtain additional content of a book which currently being written and includes harmful negative information on and about the Client,” who is identified as Weinstein in multiple documents. (In one e-mail, a Black Cube executive asks lawyers retained by the agency to refer to Weinstein as “the end client” or “Mr. X,” noting that referring to him by name “will make him extremely angry.”) The article mentioned in the contract was, according to three sources, the story that ultimately ran in the Times on October 5th. The book was “Brave,” a memoir by McGowan, scheduled for publication by HarperCollins in January. The documents show that, in the end, the agency delivered to Weinstein more than a hundred pages of transcripts and descriptions of the book, based on tens of hours of recorded conversations between McGowan and the female private investigator.

Weinstein’s spokesperson, Hofmeister, called “the assertion that Mr. Weinstein secured any portion of a book . . . false and among the many inaccuracies and wild conspiracy theories promoted in this article.”

The July agreement included several “success fees” if Black Cube met its goals. The firm would receive an additional three hundred thousand dollars if the agency “provides intelligence which will directly contribute to the efforts to completely stop the Article from being published at all in any shape or form.” Black Cube would also be paid fifty thousand dollars if it secured “the other half” of McGowan’s book “in readable book and legally admissible format.”

The contracts also show some of the techniques that Black Cube employs. The agency promised “a dedicated team of expert intelligence officers that will operate in the USA and any other necessary country,” including a project manager, intelligence analysts, linguists, and “Avatar Operators” specifically hired to create fake identities on social media, as well as “operations experts with extensive experience in social engineering.” The agency also said that it would provide “a full time agent by the name of ‘Anna’ (hereinafter ‘the Agent’), who will be based in New York and Los Angeles as per the Client’s instructions and who will be available full time to assist the Client and his attorneys for the next four months.” Four sources with knowledge of Weinstein’s work with Black Cube confirmed that this was the same woman who met with McGowan and Wallace.

Black Cube also agreed to hire “an investigative journalist, as per the Client request,” who would be required to conduct ten interviews a month for four months and be paid forty thousand dollars. Black Cube agreed to “promptly report to the Client the results of such interviews by the Journalist.”

In January, 2017, a freelance journalist called McGowan and had a lengthy conversation with her that he recorded without telling her; he subsequently communicated with Black Cube about the interviews, though he denied he was reporting back to them in a formal capacity. He contacted at least two other women with allegations against Weinstein, including the actress Annabella Sciorra, who later went public in The New Yorker with a rape allegation against Weinstein. Sciorra, whom he called in August, said that she found the conversation suspicious and got off the phone as quickly as possible. “It struck me as B.S.,” she told me. “And it scared me that Harvey was testing to see if I would talk.” The freelancer also placed calls to Wallace, the New York reporter, and to me.

Two sources close to the effort and several documents show that the same freelancer received contact information for actresses, journalists, and business rivals of Weinstein from Black Cube, and that the agency ultimately passed summaries of those interviews to Weinstein’s lawyers. When contacted about his role, the freelancer, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that he had been working on his own story about Weinstein, using contact information fed to him by Black Cube. The freelancer said that he reached out to other reporters, one of whom used material from his interviews, in the hopes of helping to expose Weinstein. He denied that he was paid by Black Cube or Weinstein.

Weinstein also enlisted other journalists to uncover information that he could use to undermine women with allegations. A December, 2016, e-mail exchange between Weinstein and Dylan Howard, the chief content officer of American Media Inc., which publishes the National Enquirer, shows that Howard shared with Weinstein material obtained by one of his reporters, as part of an effort to help Weinstein disprove McGowan’s allegation of rape. In one e-mail, Howard sent Weinstein a list of contacts. “Let’s discuss next steps on each,” he wrote. After Weinstein thanked him, Howard described a call that one of his reporters made to Elizabeth Avellan, the ex-wife of the director Robert Rodriguez, whom Rodriguez left to have a relationship with McGowan.

Avellan told me that she remembered the interview. Howard’s reporter “kept calling and calling and calling,” she said, and also contacted others close to her. Avellan finally called back, because “I was afraid people might start calling my kids.” In a long phone call, the reporter pressed her for unflattering statements about McGowan. She insisted that the call be off the record, and the reporter agreed. The reporter recorded the call, and subsequently passed the audio to Howard.

In subsequent e-mails to Weinstein, Howard said, “I have something AMAZING . . . eventually she laid into Rose pretty hard.” Weinstein replied, “This is the killer. Especially if my fingerprints r not on this.” Howard then reassured Weinstein, “They are not. And the conversation . . . is RECORDED.” The next day, Howard added, in another e-mail, “Audio file to follow.” (Howard denied sending the audio to Weinstein.) Avellan told me that she would not have agreed to coöperate in efforts to discredit McGowan. “I don’t want to shame people,” she said. “I wasn’t interested. Women should stand together.”

In a statement, Howard said that, in addition to his role as the chief content officer at American Media Inc., the National Enquirer’s publisher, he oversaw a television-production agreement with Weinstein, which has since been terminated. He said that, at the time of the e-mails, “absent a corporate decision to terminate the agreement with The Weinstein Company, I had an obligation to protect AMI’s interests by seeking out—but not publishing—truthful information about people who Mr. Weinstein insisted were making false claims against him. To the extent I provided ‘off the record’ information to Mr. Weinstein about one of his accusers—at a time when Mr. Weinstein was denying any harassment of any woman—it was information which I would never have allowed AMI to publish on the internet or in its magazines.” Although at least one of Howard’s reporters made calls related to Weinstein’s investigations, Howard insisted that he strictly divided his work with Weinstein from his work as a journalist. “I always separated those two roles carefully and completely—and resisted Mr. Weinstein’s repeated efforts to have AMI titles publish favorable stories about him or negative articles about his accusers,” Howard said. An A.M.I. representative noted that, at the time, Weinstein insisted that the encounter was consensual, and that the allegations were untrue.

Hofmeister, Weinstein’s spokesperson, added, “In regard to Mr. Howard, he has served as the point person for American Media’s long-standing business relationship with The Weinstein Company. Earlier this year, Mr. Weinstein gave Mr. Howard a news tip that Mr. Howard agreed might make a good story. Mr. Howard pursued the tip and followed up with Mr. Weinstein as a courtesy, but declined to publish any story.”

Weinstein’s relationship with Kroll, one of the other agencies he contracted with, dates back years. After Ambra Battilana Gutierrez, an Italian model, accused Weinstein of sexually assaulting her, in 2015, she reached a settlement with Weinstein that required her to surrender all her personal devices to Kroll, so that they could be wiped of evidence of a conversation in which Weinstein admitted to groping her. A recording of that exchange, captured during a police sting operation, was released by The New Yorker last month.

During the more recent effort to shut down emerging stories, Kroll again played a central role. E-mails show that Dan Karson, the chairman of Kroll Americas’ Investigations and Disputes practice, contacted Weinstein at his personal e-mail address with information about women with allegations. In one October, 2016, e-mail, Karson sent Weinstein eleven photographs of McGowan and Weinstein together at different events in the years after he allegedly assaulted her. Three hours later, Weinstein forwarded Karson’s e-mail to Boies and Weinstein’s criminal-defense attorney, Blair Berk, and told them to “scroll thru the extra ones.” The next morning, Berk replied that one photo, which showed McGowan warmly talking with Weinstein, “is the money shot.”

Berk defended her actions. “Any criminal-defense lawyer worth her salt would investigate unproven allegations to determine if they are credible,” she said. “And it would be dereliction of duty not to conduct a public-records search for photographs of the accuser embracing the accused taken after the time of the alleged assault.”

Another firm, the Los Angeles-based PSOPS, and its lead private investigator, Jack Palladino, as well as another one of its investigators, Sara Ness, produced detailed profiles of various individuals in the saga, sometimes of a personal nature, which included information that could be used to undermine their credibility. One report on McGowan that Ness sent to Weinstein last December ran for more than a hundred pages and featured McGowan’s address and other personal information, along with sections labelled “Lies/Exaggerations/Contradictions,” “Hypocrisy,” and “Potential Negative Character Wits,” an apparent abbreviation of “witnesses.” One subhead read “Past Lovers.” The section included details of acrimonious breakups, mentioning Avellan, and discussed Facebook posts expressing negative sentiments about McGowan. (Palladino and Ness did not respond to multiple requests for comment.)

Other firms were also involved in assembling such profiles, including ones that focussed on factors that, in theory, might make women likely to speak out against sexual abuse. One of the other firm’s profiles was of Rosanna Arquette, an actress who later, in The New Yorker, accused Weinstein of sexual harassment. The file mentions Arquette’s friendship with McGowan, social-media posts about sexual abuse, and the fact that a family member had gone public with an allegation that she had been molested as a child.

All of the security firms that Weinstein hired were also involved in trying to ferret out reporters’ sources and probe their backgrounds. Wallace, the reporter for New York, said that he was suspicious when he received the call from the Black Cube operative using the pseudonym Anna, because Weinstein had already requested a meeting with Wallace; Adam Moss, the editor-in-chief of New York; David Boies; and a representative from Kroll. The intention, Wallace assumed, was to “come in with dossiers slagging various women and me.” Moss declined the meeting.

In a series of e-mails sent in the weeks before Wallace received the call from Anna, Dan Karson, of Kroll, sent Weinstein preliminary background information on Wallace and Moss. “No adverse information about Adam Moss so far (no libel/defamation cases, no court records or judgments/liens/UCC, etc.),” Karson wrote in one e-mail. Two months later, Palladino, the PSOPS investigator, sent Weinstein a detailed profile of Moss. It stated, “Our research did not yield any promising avenues for the personal impeachment of Moss.”

Similar e-mail exchanges occurred regarding Wallace. Kroll sent Weinstein a list of public criticisms of Wallace’s previous reporting and a detailed description of a U.K. libel suit filed in response to a book he wrote, in 2008, about the rare-wine market. PSOPS also profiled Wallace’s ex-wife, noting that she “might prove relevant to considerations of our response strategy when Wallace’s article on our client is finally published.”

In January, 2017, Wallace, Moss, and other editors at New York decided to shelve the story. Wallace had assembled a detailed list of women with allegations, but he lacked on-the-record statements from any victims. Wallace said that the decision not to run a story was made for legitimate journalistic reasons. Nevertheless, he said, “There was much more static and distraction than I’ve encountered on any other story.”

Other reporters were investigated as well. In April, 2017, Ness, of PSOPS, sent Weinstein an assessment of my own interactions with “persons of interest”—a list largely consisting of women with allegations, or those connected to them. Later, PSOPS submitted a detailed report focussing jointly on me and Jodi Kantor, of the Times. Some of the observations in the report are mundane. “Kantor is NOT following Ronan Farrow,” it notes, referring to relationships on Twitter. At other times, the report reflects a detailed effort to uncover sources. One individual I interviewed, and another whom Kantor spoke to in her separate endeavor, were listed as having reported the details of the conversations back to Weinstein.

For years, Weinstein had used private security agencies to investigate reporters. In the early aughts, as the journalist David Carr, who died in 2015, worked on a report on Weinstein for New York, Weinstein assigned Kroll to dig up unflattering information about him, according to a source close to the matter. Carr’s widow, Jill Rooney Carr, told me that her husband believed that he was being surveilled, though he didn’t know by whom. “He thought he was being followed,” she recalled. In one document, Weinstein’s investigators wrote that Carr had learned of McGowan’s allegation in the course of his reporting. Carr “wrote a number of critical/unflattering articles about HW over the years,” the document says, “none of which touched on the topic of women (due to fear of HW’s retaliation, according to HW).”

Weinstein’s relationships with the private investigators were often routed through law firms that represented him. This is designed to place investigative materials under the aegis of attorney-client privilege, which can prevent the disclosure of communications, even in court.

David Boies, who was involved in the relationships with Black Cube and PSOPS, was initially reluctant to speak with The New Yorker, out of concern that he might be “misinterpreted either as trying to deny or minimize mistakes that were made, or as agreeing with criticisms that I don’t agree are valid.”

But Boies did feel the need to respond to what he considered “fair and important” questions about his hiring of investigators. He said that he did not consider the contractual provisions directing Black Cube to stop the publication of the Times story to be a conflict of interest, because his firm was also representing the newspaper in a libel suit. From the beginning, he said, he advised Weinstein “that the story could not be stopped by threats or influence and that the only way the story could be stopped was by convincing the Times that there was no rape.” Boies told me he never pressured any news outlet. “If evidence could be uncovered to convince the Times the charges should not be published, I did not believe, and do not believe, that that would be averse to the Times’ interest.”

He conceded, however, that any efforts to profile and undermine reporters, at the Times and elsewhere, were problematic. “In general, I don’t think it’s appropriate to try to pressure reporters,” he said. “If that did happen here, it would not have been appropriate.”

Although the agencies paid by his firm focussed on many women with allegations, Boies said that he had only been aware of their work related to McGowan, whose allegations Weinstein denied. “Given what was known at the time, I thought it was entirely appropriate to investigate precisely what he was accused of doing, and to investigate whether there were facts that would rebut those accusations,” he said.

Of his representation of Weinstein in general, he said, “I don’t believe former lawyers should criticize former clients.” But he expressed regrets. “Although he vigorously denies using physical force, Mr. Weinstein has himself recognized that his contact with women was indefensible and incredibly hurtful,” Boies told me. “In retrospect, I knew enough in 2015 that I believe I should have been on notice of a problem, and done something about it. I don’t know what, if anything, happened after 2015, but to the extent it did, I think I have some responsibility. I also think that if people had taken action earlier it would have been better for Mr. Weinstein.”

Weinstein also drafted individuals around him into his efforts—willingly and not. In December, 2016, Weinstein asked the actress Asia Argento, who ultimately went public in The New Yorker with her allegation of rape against Weinstein, to meet in Italy with his private investigators to give testimony on his behalf. Argento, who felt pressure to say yes, declined after her partner, the chef and television personality Anthony Bourdain, advised her to avoid the meeting. Another actress, who declined to be named in this story, said that Weinstein asked her to meet with reporters to extract information about other sources.

Weinstein also enlisted two former employees, Denise Doyle Chambers and Pamela Lubell, in what turned out to be an effort to identify and call people who might speak to the press about their own, or others’, allegations. Weinstein secretly shared the lists they compiled with Black Cube.

Hofmeister, speaking on Weinstein’s behalf, said, “Any ‘lists’ that were prepared included names of former employees and others who were relevant to the research and preparation of a book about Miramax. Former employees conducting interviews for the book reported receiving unwanted contacts from the media.”

Doyle Chambers declined an interview request. But Lubell, a producer who worked for Weinstein at Miramax decades ago, told me that she was manipulated into participating. In July, 2017, Lubell visited Weinstein’s offices to pitch him on an app that she was developing. In the middle of the meeting, Weinstein asked Lubell if they could have a private conversation in his office. Lubell told me that a lawyer working with Weinstein was already there, along with Doyle Chambers. Weinstein asked if Lubell and Doyle Chambers could write a “fun book on the old times, the heyday, of Miramax.” “Pam,” she recalled him saying, “write down all the employees that you know, and can you get in touch with them?”

A few weeks later, in August, after they had made the list, Weinstein “called us back into the office,” Lubell recalled. “And he said, ‘You know what, we’re going to put a hold on the book.’ ” He asked Doyle Chambers and Lubell to “call some of your friends from the list and see if they got calls from the press.” In early September, Weinstein summoned Lubell and Doyle Chambers to his office and asked them to start making calls to people connected to several actresses. “It got kind of intense,” Lubell recalled. “We didn’t know these people, and all of a sudden this was something very different from what we signed up for.” Several of the targeted women said that they felt the calls they received from Lubell and Doyle Chambers, and from Weinstein himself, were frightening.

Lubell told me that hours before the first Times story broke, on October 5th, Weinstein summoned her, Doyle Chambers, and others on his team, including the attorney Lisa Bloom, who has since resigned, to his office. “He was in a panic,” Lubell recalled. “He starts screaming, ‘Get so-and-so on the phone.’ ” After the story was published, the team scrambled to respond to it. Bloom and others pored over pictures that, like the ones featured in the Kroll e-mails, showed ongoing contact between Weinstein and women who made allegations. “He was screaming at us, ‘Send these to the board members,’ ” Lubell recalled. She e-mailed the photographs to the board ahead of the crisis meeting at which Weinstein’s position at his company began unravelling.

Since the allegations against Weinstein became public, Lubell hasn’t slept well. She told me that, although she knew that Weinstein “was a bully and a cheater,” she “never thought he was a predator.” Lubell has wondered if she should have known more, sooner.

After a year of concerted effort, Weinstein’s campaign to track and silence his accusers crumbled. Several of the women targeted, however, said that Weinstein’s use of private security agencies deepened the challenge of speaking out. “It scared me,” Sciorra said, “because I knew what it meant to be threatened by Harvey. I was in fear of him finding me.” McGowan said that the agencies and law firms enabled Weinstein’s behavior. As she was targeted, she felt a growing sense of paranoia. “It was like the movie ‘Gaslight,’ ” she told me. “Everyone lied to me all the time.” For the past year, she said, “I’ve lived inside a mirrored fun house.”

When Mrs Obama called Weinstein a “wonderful human being” and “a good friend” at an event for student film-makers at the White House in November 2013, she cannot have known that a few years later women would be lining up to accuse him of exposing himself and forcing himself on them. Between 2011 and 2013 Weinstein hosted fundraisers attended by then-President Obama which raised more than $5 million for Democrats.

Bill and Hillary Clinton have an even longer friendship with Weinstein, stretching back to the 1990s. Weinstein not only visited the Clintons at the White House, but also at the more rarefied presidential retreat of Camp David, where he found the food so dismal he ducked out for junk food at a nearby Wendy’s. He has held numerous fundraisers for the Clintons and been one of the anchors in their New York life.........

For both presidential couples Weinstein wasn’t just one supporter among many, one of those tainted donors any candidate might accidentally shake hands with at a crowded fundraiser. He entertained them at his home in New York’s West Village, and saw them during their summers at Martha’s Vineyard and in the Hamptons. 

The Obamas said: “Any man who demeans and degrades women in such fashion needs to be condemned and held accountable, regardless of wealth or status. We should celebrate the courage of women who have come forward to tell these painful stories.” 

Mrs Clinton said she was “shocked and appalled by the revelations” and that the “behaviour described by women coming forward cannot be tolerated”. Last night she spoke at greater length on CNN: “I was appalled. It was something that was just intolerable in every way. And, you know, like so many people who’ve come forward and spoken out, this was a different side of a person who I and many others had known in the past.”............................

Politically at least, Weinstein’s downfall, the revelations, the suggestion that many in liberal Washington and Hollywood knew but said nothing, serves Trump well. Weinstein has denied all claims of non-consensual sex, but the allegations against him have nonetheless dramatically lowered the bar for sleaze. The accusations against him are far worse than even the worst said of Trump.

They feed the President’s case that his liberal critics are hypocrites. Every time they accuse him of bad behaviour he will shrug his shoulders and ask if you can trust people who once tripped over themselves for Harvey Weinstein's money and support. Who sent their daughters off to be his interns................

A more timid politician might hesitate at exploiting this story, toxic as it is. But for Donald Trump, Weinstein’s downfall and the evolving torture of his liberal circle is a gift that’s going to keep on giving.

Fleet Street's Finest Turn On Weinstein  [ 17 October 2017 ]
This is one of the Daily Mail's seven hate pieces for today. One takes the point that Weinstein is an unexceptionably nasty bit of work but the rats who pretended that they knew nothing for three decades have turned on him, to break his business. But they are keeping very quiet about the fact that he is a Jew, just like the other power brokers who run the den of iniquity which is Hollywood.

Quentin Tarantino Knew That Harvey Weinstein Was A Rapist  [ 21 October 2017 ]
QUOTE
Quentin Tarantino has admitted he was aware, for decades, about Harvey Weinstein's [ allegedly ] alleged misconduct towards women. The director said he failed to act in order to protect women despite knowing about several instances of alleged sexual assault, stating: "I knew enough to do more than I did." In a new interview Tarantino, who worked with Weinstein on some of his best known films including Pulp Fiction, said he regretted not taking action with the knowledge he had. 

"There was more to it than just the normal rumours, the normal gossip," he told the New York Times"It wasn't second hand. I knew he did a couple of these things.
UNQUOTE
Everybody who is anybody in Hollywood knew but they are all Jews or on the make or both. Telling the truth meant sacrificing a career. But now, for some reason the rats have turned on him. NB Quentin Tarantino is even uglier than Weinstein, another reason for keeping his mouth shut.
PS Today's edition of the Daily Mail has got a mere five articles about the swine; their coverage is tapering off. Mine is now finished.

 

Harvey Weinstein Charged With Being A Rapist  [ 25 May 2018 ]
QUOTE
Harvey Weinstein will face rape and sex act charges on Friday, reports have revealed. The disgraced movie mogul is expected to turn himself in to authorities as prosecutors prepare to file charges that he raped one woman and forced another to perform oral sex on him, a source told CNN in the early hours on Friday.

This development comes after the Manhattan District Attorney faced growing backlash over his decision to not charge Weinstein, despite the NYPD stating multiple times since late October that there was enough evidence to seek an indictment.

The Brooklyn DA is keen on letting Jews get away with Paedophile crimes. Perhaps the Manhattan one is less corrupt.

 

Harvey Weinstein Turns Very Nasty  [ 2 February 2019 ]
QUOTE
Rose McGowan has shared an email exchange between Harvey Weinstein and his attorney Blair Berk in which they discuss framing the actress following her arrest for cocaine possession.  'Obviously trying to silence her,' wrote Weinstein after Berk sent him a link to coverage of McGowan's arrest.  Berk then fired back: 'I took care of getting that arrest warrant issued against her back on February 1 just so there would be no fingerprints. Damn.'   

That email was shared by McGowan after Justice James M. Burke ruled last week that Weinstein could be represented by attorneys Jose Baez and Ronald Sullivan Jr. in his criminal trial.  This move was allowed despite the fact that McGowan was recently represented by the men in the Virginia court case that resulted from the charge of possession of a controlled substance. McGowan now says she was convinced to take a plea by the men, a decision she now regrets because she believes that Baez and Sullivan were working for Weinstein the entire time.

Harvey Weinstein Arraigned On New Charges Before Manhattan Trial  [ 23 August 2019 ]

Harvey Weinstein is heading to court to be arraigned on a new indictment. A spokesperson for the Manhattan District Attorney's Office said that Weinstein's appearance has been scheduled for Monday, August 26, and that the matter is expected to be called at approximately 9.30am. Weinstein will then return to court two weeks later for his criminal trial, which is set to begin in September 9 and last six weeks. 

The 67-year-old mogul is charged with two counts of rape, a count of criminal sex act and two counts of predatory sexual assault for allegedly raping a woman in 2013 and sexually assaulting another in 2006.

Will they stick Harvey in the same prison as Jeffery? Surely they can't murder two high profile Jews that quickly? It's not what you know, it's whether you are going to talk. Notice that the commentary on Epstein fingers Prince Andrew but avoids Bill Clinton and others. And just why is the Mail censoring comments? As Mark Steyn says, Nothing Suspicious Here at All, Don't Even Think It. NB Harvey spent serious money to suppress information, using Mossad types.

 

Harvey Weinstein Put The Frighteners On  [ 7 November 2019 ]
QUOTE
The two new York Times journalists who broke the Harvey Weinstein story have revealed how he stormed into their offices with a 'folder full of dirt' on his accusers to try to stop their story. 

US based reporters Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor, who exposed several allegations of sexual misconduct against movie mogul Harvey Weinstein in 2017,  spoke about the several tactics that he used to try and scare them off from publishing the story on him.

The journalists, who have written a book to tell the full story of their reporting called She said: Breaking the sexual harassment story that helped ignite a movement, described how, when Harvey had got wind of their investigation he 'barged into The New York Times offices' and demanded a meeting - while he also employed private investigators to track their story and scare off their sources.

Harvey Weinstein hobbled into court in Manhattan on Friday for a hearing on his sexual assault case where prosecutors claimed he had violated bail conditions by 'mishandling' his electronic ankle monitor. The 67-year-old looked frailer than at his last appearance, clinging on to one of his aides as he made his way into the courthouse while another carried a cane.   

Weinstein will go to trial in January on five sexual assault charges.

Pretending to be frail or getting Alzheimer's disease is an effective Get Out Of Jail card. It worked for Ernie Saunders aka the Alzheimer One, the only one ever to be cured. It happened a couple of hours after he got out of prison. Weinstein is aiming to stay out of jail by getting his story in first. Let us not forget Epstein who got out by being murdered. NB all three are Jews so cheating and lying come naturally.

 

Harvey Weinstein Arrives In Court With A Zimmer Frame          [ 12 December 2019 ]
He clearly does not need it. Fortunately the Judge is bright enough to see through it. The Mail's readers didn't swallow it either. Harv might try a stretcher next time. Working the health angle is an indirect admission of guilt. But it worked for Ernie Saunders, one of the Guinness Four and, naturally enough another Jew.

 

Weinstein Touts Feminist Bona Fides, Casts Himself As Victim, In New Interview   [ 17 December 2019 ]
QUOTE
Disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein hit back at his detractors over the weekend, bragging about his work to advance women in the film industry and complaining that he feels “like the forgotten man” as his self-proclaimed achievements have been overshadowed by multiple rape allegations.

“I made more movies directed by women and about women than any filmmaker, and I’m talking about 30 years ago. I’m not talking about now when it’s vogue. I did it first! I pioneered it,” he told The New York Post from his hospital room at New York-Presbyterian Hospital in an interview published on Sunday. “My work has been forgotten.”

“I want this city to recognize who I was instead of what I’ve become,” he said.

Weinstein, who produced numerous award-winning films with A-list celebrities like Quentin Tarantino through his now-defunct studio The Weinstein Company, has been accused of rape and sexual assault by numerous women. It was recently reported that Weinstein and his former film studio’s board have reached a tentative $25 million settlement that would end nearly every sexual misconduct lawsuit brought against him and his company.

More than 30 actresses and former Weinstein employees, who have sued the movie mogul for allegations ranging from sexual misconduct to rape, have agreed to the deal, according to the lawyers.

The Times of Israel does not say that Harvey is a Jew but then its readers know that. Buying off victims at $1 million each sounds like good value if you have that kind of money. Of course it will be minus what the lawyers take.

 

Harvey Weinstein Goes On Trial With An Extra Rape Rap  [ 8 January 2020 ]
QUOTE
Los Angeles prosecutors charged Harvey Weinstein on Monday with sexually assaulting two women on successive nights just days before Oscars week in 2013 where he appeared on red carpets with his then pregnant wife. 

The announcement on the West Coast was made hours after the disgraced Hollywood mogul, 67, appeared in a New York City court using a walker for an explosive start to his rape trial there where the judge warned his lawyer to 'leave witnesses alone'.

Weinstein has been charged in LA with one felony count each of forcible rape, forcible oral copulation, sexual penetration by use of force and sexual battery by restraint concerning two separate incidents over a two-day period in 2013..............

In a joke that would later turn ominous, when that year's nominees were announced, Seth MacFarlane said after reading the actresses nominated for best supporting actress: 'Congratulations, you five ladies no longer have to pretend to be attracted to Harvey Weinstein.'

Deeply Unpleasant Jew Comes Unstuck After A Career Of Multiple Rapes   [ 25 February 2020 ]
Harvey Weinstein is working the ill health routine harder. Will the judge be fool enough to fall for it? We can all hope not. Recall another Jew, Roman Polanski. He beat the Paedophile raps by doing a runner. Buying off his victim does not seem to have worked. The Jew, Epstein was different; he could not be allowed to talk. Too many real people would have come unstuck. Clinton is just one of them, one with a string of dead to his name, largely gun shot wounds. The Fort Marcy Massacre & the Waco Massacre were part of it - see Bloody Bill Clinton. The Mail, suppressing the fact that he is a Jew just like the rest of Hollywood.

 

Harvey Weinstein Gets 23 Years For Lifetime Sexual Perversion  [ 12 March 2020 ]
QUOTE
Harvey Weinstein has been sentenced to 23 years in prison for sex crimes in a landmark #MeToo case that ended with six of his accusers sobbing and hugging each other in court and his fiery defense attorney slamming the trial as 'obscene'. The disgraced Hollywood producer was sentenced on Wednesday in Manhattan criminal court following his sexual assault and rape convictions last month.

Weinstein was sentenced to 20 years on the criminal sex act charge for forcibly performing oral sex on production assistant Mimi Haleyi in 2006. He was sentenced to three years for third degree rape for the attack on Jessica Mann in 2013.  Judge James Burke, who oversaw his trial, ordered Weinstein to serve the sentences consecutively and sentenced him to five years post release supervision for each charge...........

He did not apologize to his victims but did apologize to his two ex-wives for the number of affairs he had.

Harvey Weinstein, a fat ugly Jew comes unstuck; this is good news for once. It proves that justice can be done even when a Jew is the perpetrator. But Roman Polanski, a paedophile Jew is still out there, on the run but at least Jeffery Epstein is sorted out. There is no appeal after being murdered.

 

Harvey Weinstein Appeals Rape Convictions  [ 11 April 2021 ]
QUOTE
More than a year after his sex-crimes conviction in New York, fallen movie mogul Harvey Weinstein's lawyers filed an appeal Monday, calling his trial "unconstitutional" for failing to guarantee him a "fair and impartial jury trial."

The 166-page brief was filed by Weinstein's legal team, led by New York attorney Arthur Aidala, to the state Appellate Division challenging Weinstein's conviction of first-degree sexual assault and third-degree rape in February 2020 in Manhattan. 

The brief argues that Weinstein's convictions should be reversed, the third degree rape charge dismissed as time-barred, and a new trial ordered on the single count of first degree criminal sexual act. 

"With a year behind us and emotions subsided, the transcript of the case confirms what we always believed: that Mr. Weinstein did not receive a fair trial," said Aidala in a statement to USA TODAY.  "We will argue that the trial judge disregarded well accepted and fundamental principles of New York law and violated Mr. Weinstein's constitutional rights."

Weinstein was sentenced to 23 years in prison in March 2020 and began serving his sentence in Wende Correctional Facility in Erie County near Buffalo. Similar sex-crime charges are pending against him in Los Angeles County; next week, he is scheduled to appear virtually for an extradition hearing on that case. 

The trial followed more than two years after Weinstein was the target of two media exposes, in The New York Times and the New Yorker, documenting the allegations of multiple women, including A-list actresses who appeared in Weinstein's movies, of sexual misconduct, ranging from sexual harassment to groping to rape, dating back decades.

Another perpetrator turns into a victim after TSHTF. But then Harvey Weinstein is a Jew in Hollywood where being one is practically compulsory. It's where good looking young women go because they are desperate to be film stars. Recall that  Ghislaine Maxwell, another Jew is throwing money at lawyers to get out of prison. She hasn't been convicted yet but give it time.

 

Jew With An Ugly Penis Enjoyed Raping White Women  [ 10 November 2022 ]
QUOTE
One of the women accusing  Harvey Weinstein of sexual assault described his penis as “disgusting” and said in court Monday it looked like it “had been chopped off and sewn back on.”“I didn’t really see a full sack, I literally just saw a penis,” the accuser — known to the court as Jane Doe 2 — said at Los Angeles Superior Court when questioned by Deputy District Attorney Paul Thompson.

During his opening statement, the prosecutor had told the jury the alleged victims would describe the disgraced producer’s deformities in detail. “Because of an infection, his testicles were actually taken from his scrotum and put into his inner thighs,” Thompson told the jurors during his opening statement on Oct. 24

“None of the Jane Does will describe his anatomy perfectly, but most of them will be able to describe these abnormalities that they observed during the assaults.”

The New York Post is playing it for laughs. Harvey Weinstein is in the frame for another four rapes but he is already doing 23 years. He is still pretending to be a cripple; it didn't get him any sympathy from the previous jury.

 

Jew Facing An Extra 24 Years For A String Of Rapes In Los Angeles  [ 22 December 2022 ]

Disgraced Hollywood movie producer Harvey Weinstein has been found guilty of rape and two counts of sexual assault against an Italian actress and model – known as Jane Doe 1 – by a jury in Los Angeles, California.

After a month-long trial and nine days of deliberations, the three guilty counts on Monday mark the second conviction of the onetime Hollywood kingmaker who became the notorious face of the #MeToo movement in the United States after a litany of sexual abuse allegations emerged five years ago. The jury on Monday also acquitted the 70-year-old or could not reach a verdict in the cases of the three other accusers.

Weinstein is already serving a 23-year prison sentence after being convicted of sex crimes by a court in New York City....................

Weinstein faces up to 18 years in prison on the counts for which he was convicted, but aggravating factors could increase that to 24 years.
