The sad part that is getting lost in all of the denouncement hoopla is that his behavior seems to have been an open secret for a long time. Take this Seth McFarlane joke from the 2013 Oscars:
Because your first move was to mention 3 institutions that are stock villains for the right, which is essentially a political judgement, instead of taking a more expansive structural view of the problem, which would seem to be more thoughtful and humane.
Of course I don't doubt that what you say is true, but it's only a corner of the picture. What touched a nerve was the apparent reflexiveness and myopia of your take.
to be fair he agrees with his politics so as a republican he can't criticize him.
or he'll pretend all of the accusations against trump are most definitely bogus despite trump's words and actions that paint him as a textbook abuser. the mental gymnastics would be comical if it wasn't legitimately sad and pathetic.

Indeed. Just shows how difficult structural misogyny (and other forms of structural violence) are to overcome, even within ostensibly or putatively "progressive" spaces.
"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
'Progressivism' is a farse. It's a cover for powerful people to seize control by taking advantage of emotional weak people. The leaders that espoused these beliefs do not believe.
You could substitute any -ism there, because any movement or ideological framework is ever in danger of cynical co-option. Progressive movements have their share of issues, for sure; but the progressive telos is leagues more valuable and valorizable than the regressive nonsense to which you subscribe.
"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
Yeah because the progressive policies implemented in the last 30 years have really helped our society.

This was well done.
Like all other things liberal Hollywood is a hypocritcal joke. They knew about this forever while lecturing America about social justice issues. Pathetic.
That exchange between thethe and jpx is so representative of the things that make progressives and conservatives seem so much farther apart than we really are on most things. There's some profound statement waiting to be made there but I'm not articulate enough to make it.
FbI may now investigate this matter. Wonder if this is the opening of Pandoras box.
But please...lecture us all backwards trump supporters at the Oscars again this year.
I'm glad political gotcha games are your takeaway from all of this. Sad.

Today is a good day to remember that Anita Hill alleged gross sexual harassment by a man now sitting on the Supreme Court.

Fox News is doing a segment on Harvey Weinstein and media hypocrisy ... it’s like they’ve never heard of Roger Ailes
