The story broke on Thursday night. Shows would have already been recorded and late night shows don’t tape on Friday. Monday is going to be a shit storm of jokes. This is not a partisan issue. Everyone hates Weinstein. Republicans are trying to paint this as a partisan issue, but Democrats don’t give a fuck about Harvey Weinstein.
Colbert immediately took to Twitter to rip O'Reilly when he was accused. But is silent now.

Everyone does not hate Weinstein. He is praised during award shows. He does fundraisers with a lot of celebrities, including Colbert.

I believe he is “thanked” and has his ass kisses the way anyone who has that much power in Hollywood does. It doesn’t mean he is liked or respected. He’s probably feared and can still probably hurt careers. It might be cowardice keeping people from going after him early on but I don’t think it’s right/left politics. I think people will start piling on now that it’s started.

It's political because apparently it was an open secret about how disgusting Weinstein is and all these virtue signaling liberal celebs had no problem keeping their mouth shut and working with him. Meryl Streep has no problem thanking him and calling him God. A woman that also gave a standing applause to a rapist. Or there's Rose McGowan who is mentioned in the article. A woman that likes to spend her time speaking out on women's issues on Twitter but had no problem making a movie with a convicted child molester. They're all hypocrites. If Weinstein had been a big donor to Republicans instead of Democrats, Colbert would taken to Twitter to rip him and you know it.

You have a point. I agree that it’s cowardice, and hypocritical. (If they knew). But you see this type of cowardly, self serving, careerism on both sides. Like the “family values” republicans endorsing an admitted sexual assaulter who has been accused of sexual assault by at least 15 women for president.
People are shit and often only back their values until it affects their wallet or social advancement.

The entire Hollywood industry has long been a sexually deviant-based culture.
If you want to be a star, prepare to sell your soul.
They're a confused bunch, trapped between upbringing, and the will of the powerful.
The tragedy ratio in Hollywood will always be high.
Look no further than the divorce rate.

Props to Weinstein for trying to rehabilitate himself, but being sorry doesn't mean you don't have to pay the piper.

I sort of chalk it up to someone they know or at least have met on occasion and it's kind of a WTF moment trying to comprehend that someone they thought they knew, was someone else. It's easy to jump out of the gate being critical of someone you don't know, but completely different, like I mentioned, when it's someone know. I don't for a minute think they deep down are gonna give a guy a pass for acting like that creep, but the same reason many of those close to Ailes and other FOX creeps did. I didn't think their quietness meant approval at all either.

Either way, all these creeps need professional help and I'd be perfectly okay if they never worked in their respective industries again.

This isn't news to celebrities. The ppl that work with him applaud rapists and work with child molesters. They don't care.

And people shit on Trump for having a young foreign wife.
LOL
yep hypocrites
I kinda feel bad for Melania. You know she married Trump because she wanted to be a Manhatten diva and never have to lift a finger. Now they expect her to find a cure for cyber bullying.

No, Trump has provided enough stuff to be hated for... a young wife is so far down on the list at this point.

You are better than this
?

I think maybe you and Priziesthorse @Priziesthorse are misreading this post based on your comments. Let me give you both an analogy to what I said:

Shout out on buying that mansion in Trenton, but commuting across the George Washington Bridge every day doesn't mean you don't still live in the armpit of America.

This is kind of like a priest who admits he molested children a decade ago but he realises it was wrong but let’s let bygones be bygones.....he’s reformed......ok

Yeah bro. Props to the guy that sexually harassed women for 3 decades and now plans to sue the paper for 50 mill for exposing him. Props to him indeed.

The only person giving him "PROPS" should be Anthony Wiener.

My guess is this will all blow over quickly and be forgotten. None of these famous liberal cowards will dare go against him. In a couple of days Trump will misspell a word in a Tweet and that will be the focus. Harvey is a liberal who supported Hillary, he can't be THAT bad.

The props is pretty obviously meant sardonically Explaining this to an east coaster is really making me disappointed. I expect this from someone in Seattle, not you.
