Meant to be a "weapon" to be used against "enemies" who could be relied upon to resign in disgrace when exposed, the monster has turned on it's creator.

Meant to be a "weapon" to be used against "enemies" who could be relied upon to resign in disgrace when exposed, the monster has turned on it's creator.

That's what happens to those that can "control" the mob.
Control is illusionary.

Bryan Singer Hit With Fresh Allegations of Sex With Underage Boys

I can see how Hollywood got this way. If the only people who get the jobs have to do sexual favors, then it becomes part of the economy of Hollywood. Bet Bryan Singer got his start that way. Now he’s getting paid. Some of those underaged boys may have been given their shot a Hollywood.

Meanwhile, Gellette lectures men.

KARMA: Peers Demand CA Democrat Who Honored Stormy Daniels Step Down Amid ‘Numerous’ Sexual Harassment Claims


Alleged text: “Don’t you want to be able to tell your friends that you sucked the mayor’s d***?”

Three members of the West Hollywood, CA City Council have publicly asked Mayor John Duran to relinquish his title after multiple men have claimed they were sexually harassed by the Democrat known for impropriety and his resentment of President Donald J. Trump.

Duran, who made national headlines last year after honoring porn actress Stormy Daniels, recently announced that he would step down as board chairman of a gay chorus after members accused the mayor of sliding his hand down their underpants.

Matt Lauer accused of raping a junior colleague at Sochi 2014 Olympics. Former producer Brooke Nevils went on the record by name to make her accusations in interview for a new Ronan Farrow book

So the [STRIKE]news interview [/STRIKE]commercial which included salacious details for purposes of hawking the book indicated the woman went back for additional servings of little Matt multiple times after returning from the Olympics to the US. I hate evil people that rape women but my sympathy meter goes down for women that go back for more of the same and then decide to jump on the Me Too band wagon long after the fact.

Matt Lauer accused of raping a junior colleague at Sochi 2014 Olympics. Former producer Brooke Nevils went on the record by name to make her accusations in interview for a new Ronan Farrow book

Not to mention that Farrow is reporting that NBC was so concerned with the Lauer stuff getting out, that Harvey Weinstein was able to use the threat of exposing Lauer and NBC to pressure them into killing Farrow's original reporting on Weinstein.

https://www.dailywire.com/news/form...ccusations-of-network-cover-up-nbc-fires-back

“Weinstein made it known to the network that he was aware of Lauer’s behavior and capable of revealing it,” Farrow alleges.

“Citing anonymous sources at NBC and AMI, Farrow, 31, claims that Weinstein was using the Enquirer‘s accumulated dirt on the Today show star’s alleged workplace misconduct to pressure NBC executives to kill Farrow’s long-gestating Weinstein exposé,” THR explains.

NBC has vehemently denied the accusation to both Farrow and THR.

“NBC News was never contacted by AMI, or made aware in any way of any threats from them, or from anyone else, for that matter,” a network spokesperson told THR. “And the idea of NBC News taking a threat seriously from a tabloid company about Matt Lauer is especially preposterous, since they already covered him with great regularity.”

But Farrow stands by his claims, insisting that his book has been rigorously fact-checked and that he interviewed more than 200 sources and reviewed “hundreds of pages of previously undisclosed contracts, emails and text messages,” THR notes.

The book also claims that Weinstein had such frequent contact with NBC News Chairman Andy Lack, NBC News President Noah Oppenheim and MSNBC President Phil Griffin that his assistants referred to them as “the triumvirate.”

The most explosive claims in the book, THR underscores, are “seven allegations of workplace sexual misconduct by Lauer that seem to contradict the network’s stance that management had no knowledge of his behavior as well as seven nondisclosure agreements — many with hush-money payouts — to accusers of Lauer and others at NBC.”

Corruption in big media? I'm shocked!

"Every time I went to his apartment he raped me!"

Sounds like he liked using the back door too. She claims it was non-consensual because she was too drunk to give consent.

 

[KittySlayer]

As noted, salacious details to sell the book.

Sounds like he liked using the back door too.

Well I thought NY apartments only had a front door. I guess the apartments in the high rise buildings do have a trash chute.

 

[HoughMade]

Lauers’ either a slime or a criminal slime. All these players deserve each other.

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Weinstein has been charged in LA with one felony count each of forcible rape, forcible oral copulation, sexual penetration by use of force, and sexual battery by restraint on the same day his NYC sexual assault trial opened.

 

[Ingomike]

To his credit Brian Stetzer on CNN recently pressed the director of Bombshell, movie about FOX news, on when a movie on Ronan Farrow and the NBC coverup for Weinstein will be made...

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Weinstein’s lawyer Donna Rotunno on #MeToo: “I feel that women may rue the day that all of this started when no one asks them out on a date, and no one holds the door open for them, and no one tells them that they look nice. The pendulum is swinging so far in the overly sensitive direction that men can’t really be men, and women can’t really be women.”

She's not wrong.

 

[BugI02]

She's full of ****. She's trying to suggest that a fat, disgusting, soft Hollywood version of The Hut, who was extorting sexual favors from movie star wanna-bes as well as outright raping them, is somehow a 'victim' of overreaction

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Right. What she's saying in that quote, while true, is unrelated to the accusations against Weinstein... and really not a defense.
