    I forgot about the backhanded shot at Ashley Judd.I actually looked when I saw that. Her book came out 6 or 7 years ago and it was a memoir. He somehow turned it into her in throes of depression right now. ... which of course *hint hint* makes her story of him being a creep toward her untrue, I guess.

    I dunno. I just think he looks worse for opening his fat mouth, but I am sure he thinks he can steamroll it all away with BS, threats, innuendo, whatever. ... because that has worked for him in the past.

    It was well known enough the basis of multiple plot lines on Entourage!

    Yeah, truly a cheap shot at Judd. Pathetic attempt to deflect:

    Weinstein continued, “I know Ashley Judd is going through a tough time right now, I read her book [her memoir ‘All That Is Bitter and Sweet’], in which she talks about being the victim of sexual abuse and depression as a child. Her life story was brutal, and I have to respect her. In a year from now, I am going to reach out to her.”

    A lot more stories are going to come out — no pun intended.

    Alma,

    I'm thinking this came out now for two reasons:

    To a lesser extent, Cosby.

    To a greater extent, Trump and GHBTP.

    In a world where men are perverts, even the guy who makes you laugh at movies it's not immune. Andy Signore faces a tough fight to save Honest Trailers from two women who accuse him of sexual abuse.

    Figured this didn't warrant it's own thread so I'll put it here

    'Honest Trailers' Creator Andy Signore Accused of Sexual Abuse

    And Fox News...
    I also don't think it can be dismissed how the numbers help. One woman (as we've seen) can be trashed as someone looking for a payout, a disgruntled employee or whatever, when you have people like Ashley Judd and Gretchen Carlson come forward, who actually have more to lose than gain by coming forward, it makes a big difference.
