My uncle is almost 80 and a uni professor who was born and raised in rural South Asia, in a misogynist and sexist culture where he witnessed women close to him beaten by their husbands regularly. He’s very well known in his academic field. He has a lot of power in his profession as a professor, PhD director, supporter…

If you’re 64 and are STILL harassing women, then you’ve experienced the women’s liberation movement and several waves of feminism and learned FUCKING NOTHING.

Oh, interesting. Because Ronan’s BF Jon Lovett posted on twitter after the NYTimes piece, not quoting it but with the timing it seemed to refer to it, “Watch your heads, other shoes will be dropping.”

yep- ronan farrow is doing the new yorker piece, and i think he has someone, or someones, BIG on record. someone big enough that they dont give a fuck about a settlement, and probably arent even pursuing a lawsuit, but theyre talking

I’d rather respect her privacy. Harvey is a sleazeball, I have zero qualms about respecting his. But you definitely know her.

I’m sort of shocked he didn’t trade Bryan Singer details as a way to get out of this.

this is all shit that was already well known- something big is coming. laura bloom is trying real hard to get ahead of whatever it is.

Same with my dad and grandfather, it’s always a pleasure to see women they worked with in the fifties and beyond so delighted to run into them and reminisce. It was entirely possible to grow up and work back then and respect women. This guy has no excuse.

This is the biggest mistake he could make. He can’t win if it is true, and there will be plenty of women willing to testify as to the veracity of the story. He should have backed quietly away with his statement and waited a bit and people would forget, as they are wont to do. But he always was a moron.

Last year I was on a red-eye from LAX to JFK, in first class with the flat-bed seats. Harvey was in Row 1, and sitting across the aisle from me was a well-known young actress. Shortly after getting onboard, he changed into this jogging suit sort of thing that looked kind of like pajamas. He came over to the actress…

He, and Lisa Bloom, can fuck right off with this “dinosaur learning new ways” (direct quote from Bloom in the article). He’s 64, not 106. My father-in-law is 81. He was a top boy in the banking industry in his youth, including doing finance for many films in London in the 60s and 70s. The man has some amazing tales.

I’ve never believed the Gwyneth rumors just because she was born with Hollywood connections. You don’t have to sleep with a producer for a role when your godfather is King Spielberg.

Harvey TOTALLY bought her that Oscar, though, sexual favors or not.

And now he’s hired the lawyer that brought down Gawker and is suing the NYT

I’m so glad this is all finally coming out into the open. Rose McGowen hinted that he was the one who raped her. Right after she started to publicly talk about her rape, naked pictures of her were leaked. I don’t think that was a coincidence. Harvey has abused his power for years. The rumors about everyone from…

I’m sorry - “this isn’t an overnight process. I’ve been trying to do this for 10 years and this is a wake-up call.”

“I’m just a helpless old guy out of touch with the ways of the modern world.”

He’s producing her book.

The thing that amazes me about this, like Cosby, is everyone knew this. Most people here in the comments knew this. There were jokes on mainstream network sitcoms about this.

Somewhere, Jay Z just did an an Arsenio level spit take.

The worst kept secret in New York or Hollywood.
