Earlier today that weinstein sexually harassed them. Other actresses are telling the New York Times that weinstein was making unwanted advances. Heather graham is also speaking out. She told variety that weinstein said if she had with him, he would get a movie deal in the movie role. And weinsteins wife Georgina Chapman told People Magazine she is now finally leaving her husband. According to the daily mail, weinstein is taking a page out of the clinton playbook. Hes hiring a top hollywood lawyer in an attempt if you read it to discredit his victims. Only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to allegations against Harvey Weinstein. With even more disturbing is the fact that people, many of them in hollywood knew what weinstein was doing and they knew it for decades and they did nothing about it. Some in hollywood are even being accused of helping to cover this up. According to a former New York Times reporter, there
is a 2004 story that she was working on About Weinstein. Allegedly point paying a woman to keep her silent after he sexually harassed her. That was killed with the help she says from actors matt damon and russell crowe. David is denying he played any role and says the conversation he had with the reporter was not About Weinstein. Theres also a fashion designer, want to be outraged . Donna karan has apologized today after saying on sunday that weinsteins accusers were asking for it. Theres also the fact that as we highlighted last night, weinstein is a huge, massive, major democratic donor. Their estimate is that he contributed over 2 million to democrats since the year 2000. Very key top democratic names and players. Including an estimated 44,000 to hillary clinton. Thats in addition to the 15,000 that weinstein gave to her super pac. Weinstein also donated over dollars to the obama victory fund. Maybe thats why took clinton and the obamas five days to begin to speak out. Thats not all. The Hollywood Executive dished out over 97,000 to the Democratic National committee. He wrote checks for over 76,000 to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign committee. Some democrats to their credit giving the money back. Others are donating to various liberal groups. Really . Not every single democrat isnt doing that. Even though they should be. Remember during the campaign . I made such a big deal about all of the money that hillary clinton, or foundation, was taking in from countries like saudi arabia, qatar, oman, kuwait. The uae. They treat women horror to make horribly. In some of these countries gays
and lesbians are put to death. Christians and jews are persecuted. Five days after the scandal broke, we want to remind you what the women who accused bill clinton of Sexual Misconduct said. I dont remember hollywood stars speaking out against clinton or talking about his issues that he had to deal with. Or how hillary defended him. You may remember this. It he described a scene when he was biting on your lip and when it was all over, he was leaving. Inside you better put some ice on that. Yeah. And casually put on his sunglasses and walked out the door. It was a terrible ordeal for me. No woman should be subjected to it. Sean he assaulted you. He touched, grabbed, fondled and kissed you against your will. An allegation not made by one woman. Its made by many others. Next thing you know, she pulled down his pants, everything. He was exposed. And i said i am not that kind of girl. And i need to be getting back to my bed. Sean remember what hillary said . She said their accusations were part of the vast rightwing rig conspiracy theory. The ever so eloquent statement she put out About Weinstein today. I was shocked and appalled by the revelations about Harvey Weinstein. The behavior described a women coming forward cannot be tolerated. Their courage in the support of others is critical in helping to top this kind of behavior. Really, hillary, really . Three genetic sentences and your silence over the years . Heres the truth about the clintons and weinstein. Theyve known weinstein for years. Theyve been more than happy to take all of his money and run
campaigns. Foxnews. Com is reporting that weinstein donated 200,000 to that clinton foundation. Maybe thats why she waited to condemn weinstein. She never criticized those countries that treat women, gays and lesbians, christians and jews horribly. Finally at this late hour, the obamas finally put out a statement About Weinstein that reads this. Michelle and i have been disgusted about the recent reports of Harvey Weinstein. Any man who demeans or degrades women in such fashion needs to be condemned and held accountable regardless of wealth or status. We should celebrate the courage of women who have come forward to tell these painful stories and we all need to build a Culture Including by empowering our girls in teaching our boys decency and respect so we can make such behavior less prevalent in the future. Okay, a obama loves to opine
have spoken out about the treatment of women, gays and lesbians, kristens aunt jews under sharia. Hollywood is a perfect example. Weve been hearing about this type of behavior, that weinstein is being accused of. Hes definitely not alone. Its bigger than anyone is going to tell you. We will be investigating. People have been talking for years. Ever hear the phrase the Casting Couch in hollywood . Weve all heard that phrase. Guess what . Hollywood has turned a blind eye to the systemic abuse. They just accepted it. All while attacking conservatives as being antiwomen, feeding moral outrage, selective moral outrage any time a conservative is caught up in a scandal or an alleged scandal. Hollywood does not care about the issue that they talked about because if they did, someone would have spoken out About Weinstein sooner. People have known for years and they did not do it. Hollywood, what do they do in the movies . They romanticize violence and
sex. And of course, cartoon characters. They slant left. This is why its bigger than anyone will tell you. I have a video from 2003. Remember . A guy accused of rape and even admitted to part of it . Roman polanski. He went back and oscar for best director. The left its audience, how did they respond . He was in the 40s when the accusation took place. The girl was 13. The same polanski accused of raping a 13yearold girl after giving her champagne and quaaludes. He fled to europe before he got the full sentence he deserved. Which is why he was absent from this award ceremony. Now that you know this, close attention. How did the hollywood oscars
crowd, how did they cheer for this accused child rapist . Watch this. Roman polanski for the pianist. [cheers and applause] sean seeing that after knowing what Roman Polanski did to a 13yearold girl . Should we really be surprised that hollywood Leftist Liberals did not expose weinstein sooner . We also have to point out that some in hollywood, they still support polanski. Back in 2009, he was arrested in switzerland. People wanted him extradited to california on the 1977 case. But over 100 Leftist Hollywood celebrities, we will show you some of the notable ones right there. They all signed a petition. Demanding the guy that did this
to a 13 euro girl be released. There are also reports that Harrison Ford and Harvey Weinstein himself signed that petition. This hypocrisy is stunning. Its shameful. Beyond disgusting. Heres my prediction tonight. This Harvey Weinstein scandal is only the tip of the iceberg. For example, after terry crews, he announced he was sexually assaulted by highranking Hollywood Executive, we will have a lot more on the days and weeks ahead. Here with reaction, fox news correspondent geraldo rivera. Radio talk show host larry elder and monica crowley. I want to start with you. You knew him. In 2001, he worked as an editor and writer for talk magazine. It was half owned by Harvey Weinstein. And his first movie studio, miramax. He controlled half of the magazine. While i never experienced or witnessed sexual harassment
myself, i did witness extremely abusive behavior on the part of Harvey Weinstein directed to the editor in chief and others who worked at the magazine. He would come in that office once a week, a couple times a week. Screaming. The vitriol that he spewed was so abusive. Rather than being productive, it actually had the contrary effect. We all heard whispers about the other part of it. Its the abusive behavior in one area certainly tells us about abusive behavior in other areas. Sean how is it possible, geraldo . I have friends. They told me the same thing that live in los angeles. Everybody knew. Everybody knew and is far more pervasive than anybody knows. The guy in new zealand whose hiring attorneys to expose all of these people. I think this is going to get bigger. Its huge. Nobody can pretend to be surprised. You mentioned the expression Casting Couch. Ive done at least a dozen exposes on the Casting Couch over the years. In 2013 when seth mcfarlane, the very gifted comic was presenting the nominations for the Academy Award for best supporting actress, he said of the five nominees, now they didnt have to pretend to like Harvey Weinstein anymore. This was a generalized this was general knowledge. Furthermore, to your political point, i dont think the Progressive Side of the political agenda, the liberals can in any way denied that they dropped the ball regarding these specific allegations. Theres no doubt but if this was one of us, if it was bill oreilly again or if it was bill cosby, the left would have had it. It would have been the lead in the Saturday Night Live monologue or the weekend update. It wasnt even mentioned. The latenight comic didnt even mention it at all. Its a lamentable that a person who is a predator like this a pig but if you are a rightwing pig, they would have been all over this on friday. Not waiting until tuesday. Sean so true. Larry, you lived in l. A. Its different in this sense. Everybody i know that lives out there, there are so many people, young people that go out there with dreams and aspirations and they want to be actors and actresses. And models and all of this. I am told by my friends there, this is so pervasive. Its worse than anybody knows. What do you hear from other people in the industry . Thats why this is so appalling, sean. Its one thing for a young starlet, naive, the Casting Couch in the behavior of Harvey Weinstein. Its another thing for an accomplished, established actors like glenn close to say yeah, i knew about this for a long time and never said anything. Knowing about it all this time and not saying anything, knowing full well hes doing this to younger actresses . My goodness, where have you been . We are not to be surprised by this kind of hypocrisy. Paula jones, she works at the National Organization for women. She was told im sorry, you are in bed with the wrong people. She told me she called gloria aldrichs office twice and they didnt even return the phone call. Sean the clintons got a pass. Because they are liberal. All the things ive been thinking about the money they take from countries that have sharia, the clintons got a pass on all bill clintons garbage and they all knew that was true. Sean, one more thing, theres a book called no one left alive too. It was written by douglas brinkley, a very respected
historian. By christopher hitchens. He said that bill clinton has been accused of greg ser twice but three times. Sean It Didnt Stop Them not a peep out of hillary. Go ahead. Hillary clinton said over the last year that these kind of women make these accusations should be believed. Harvey weinstein in the first day of this scandal was telling people this was going to blow over because he believed as a good liberal throwing his money around that he would be protected. For a long time, he was, sean. It shows a very deep, corrosive moral degradation. Not just in hollywood but in the culture. Sean im not going to Cast Dispersions On One Group of people. Im not going to Cast Dispersions On Women that were afraid to talk. But so many waited and then thinking if you are waiting,
youve got to know in the back of your head this guy is not changing his behavior. Some were very rich and powerful. When its happening to you, you think you are alone and its only happening to you. That this kind of thing was only directed to you. Sean good point. When you walk out of a situation like this, you are terrified to tell anybody because you think youre the only one and you are not going to be believed. Sean geraldo. The partial solution to this as this emerges one Harvey Weinstein paid off these people, i have no doubt that he and his privately held company of which he and his brother own 42 , they deducted those payoffs, the silence money from their income tax. As a legitimate business aspect. Thats a violation of tax law. The frustration that the New York County d. A. Voiced
about the inability to prosecute him for the groping of the actress, because she may have been unreliable or whatever it was now the tax man can unpeeled a lot of this nonsense and hold people accountable for clear violation of the irs tax code. A felony, by the way. Thats the way to go. Many of the complainants coming forward, in the bill cosby case, many of the Alley Vacations were 2030even 40 years old. I suspect in the weinstein case, there are fresher allegations in which the statute of limitations is not so old. Sean i promise well get to the bottom of it. Young people deserve better. The Casting Couch crap has got
to stop. Im sorry about what you went through, too. Roger caddell, a huge announcement on the National Anthem controversy. Youre going to want to hear this. Newt gingrich and studio as we continue tonight on ah, dinner. Sean welcome back to hannity. Nfl commissioner Roger Goodell finally responded to the National Anthem controversy playing the league. Hello, roger. In a letter he wrote. The current dispute over the National Anthem is threatening to erode the unifying power of our game and is now dividing us and our players and many fans across the country. He continued. Like many of our fans, we believe everyone should stand for the National Anthem. We need to move past this controversy and we want to do that together with our players. Meanwhile, Dallas Cowboys owner jerry jones repeated his position that he will bench players who disrespect the flag. Good for him. Watch this. The policy is if you do not honor and stand for the flag, a lot of the fans feel that you should. If thats not the case, then you will not play. Sean remember, people fought bled and died under that flag. Unfortunately, those on the left in this country were quick to accuse jerry jones of being racist. This is pathetic. Watch this. Jerry jones displayed leadership but i need to be with my players, he got down and linked arms. I understand that. It seems like thats where he was going. Now it seems like it was as phony as a three dollar bill. The word that comes to mind, i dont care if he doesnt like me using it, plantation. The players are here to serve me and they will do what i want, no matter how much i pay them. They are not equal to me. Jerry jones his decision in many ways, smacks of the plantation mentality. Sean what about nfl players . Are we restricting their Free Speech Rights . And when they put on their cleats 9 11 oh oh two meg zero . They were forbidden from doing that. You cant twerk or taunt or do a fake bow and arrow in the end zone. Author of how to turn good men into whiners, weenies, and wimps. Burgess owens is back with us. There are plenty restrictions on free speech in the nfl. Cant remember 9 11. You cannot honor dead Police Officers assassinated in the line of duty. One player wanted to honor his mother with pink but it wasnt the month of october. He was denied this request. Why cant they make rules here without being called racist . Heres the problem, i think
the nfl commissioner had it right. We have to remove the barrier and move forth and find a way for america to come together. I think the players should stand for the plaque. Sean this is about low ratings and revenues walking out the door. This is not about principle. People arent watching it. The disrespect of the brave men and women who fought, bled, and died for that flag. To play its part and they get paid a lot of money. We need americans who stand with us for the flag to stand and erase the racial divide in our country. We have issues monday through sunday. Sean burgess, i mentioned this. Robert kraft said to all his players, i will match you dollar for dollar. Lets do something in our communities and help people. I am so excited about this conversation we are having. What we are seeing in the black community, as we pull back the
underbelly of socialism and marxism, you see people that dont have any hope. At the end of the day, we have a chance to have the conversation. Where are the black leaders . All these guys who are now
