While I don't know Harvey Weinstein, and until a few days ago, had never heard of him, I gotta ask:
Who did he piss off?
Apparently his use of the "casting couch" was well known, and all those women who went to him for his access willingly chose to do so. As far as I can tell, he NEVER forced anyone to fall upon that couch. Apparently they chose to pay that price in an attempt to gain stardom.
Plus, he'd been using that tactic for more than 20 years....And, apparently everyone in the business knew it.
I find it hard to believe that he is the only man (or woman) to use their power like that.
Why, suddenly, is the fact that he did so, something of a terrible revelation? Apparently it was an "open secret" until a few days ago, then it became something else.....
It looks like he is being "Cosby'd" to me. Someone is mad at him and is going to take him down.
So why now? Why are they going after him NOW?
Why not earlier, or 5 years ago....or 3? Or even last year, before the election?
Why now? Who gains?
