But where were Hollywood's social jurist warriors the final thirty years?
After all, Hollywood insiders telephone phone Weinstein's deportment Hollywood's worst kept secret. The goggle box serial "Entourage," based on the basis of Hollywood agents, portrayed an obnoxious, browbeating character, Harvey Weingard, clearly based on Weinstein. On NBC's serial "30 Rock," 1 grapheme made the next joke: "I turned downwards intercourse amongst Harvey Weinstein on no less than 3 occasions -- out of five."
At the 2013 Oscar awards show, host Seth MacFarlane, afterwards reading the names of the 5 nominees inwards the supporting actress category, joked, "Congratulations. You 5 ladies no longer receive got to pretend to live on attracted to Harvey Weinstein." Today MacFarlane says, "I couldn't resist the chance to accept a difficult swing inwards his direction," afterwards his friend, actress Jessica Barth, confided that she had been sexually harassed past times Weinstein inwards his hotel room inwards 2011.
So, many inwards the Hollywood manufacture said too did null -- until now. The courageous women coming frontwards deserve praise too encouragement for speaking out. But where was this back upwardly for the accusers of Bill too Hillary Clinton?
Former Arkansas staffer Paula Jones defendant then-Gov. too presidential candidate Bill Clinton of sexual harassment. Clinton aide James Carville famously said, "If yous drag a hundred-dollar neb through a trailer park, yous never know what you'll find." Jones said she sought assist from the National Organization for Women, but they refused to back upwardly her.
Kathleen Willey, on "60 Minutes," described beingness a victim of alleged sexual battery past times Clinton inwards the Oval Office. Willey, a Clinton motility volunteer, says that Clinton took her mitt too placed it on his aroused genitalia: "He touched my breasts amongst his mitt ... too and hence he whispered ... 'I've wanted to produce this e'er since I set eyes on you.' ... He took my hand, too he pose it ... on his genitals." Willey said she managed to force him away. Not entirely did the left's social jurist warriors decline to back upwardly her, feminist Gloria Steinem truly defended Clinton! Days afterwards Willey's appearance, Steinem wrote, "Even if (Willey's) allegations are true, the President is non guilty of sexual harassment. ... (Willey) pushed him away, she said, too it never happened again. In other words, President Clinton took 'no' for an answer." Incredible.
Juanita Broaddrick, on "Dateline NBC," defendant Clinton of raping her when he was Arkansas attorney full general too a gubernatorial candidate: "I showtime pushed him away. I precisely told him 'no.' ... He tries to osculation me again. He starts biting on my lip. ... And too hence he forced me downwards on the bed. I precisely was really frightened. I tried to instruct away from him. I told him 'no.' ... He wouldn't brain to me."
Broaddrick also claims that ii weeks afterwards the alleged rape, Hillary Clinton verbally intimidated her. According to Broaddrick, Hillary approached her at a political event: "She came over to me, took ahold of my mitt too said, 'I've heard hence much almost yous too I've been dying to run across you. ... I precisely desire yous to know how much that Bill too I appreciate what yous produce for him.' ... (Hillary Clinton) took ahold of my mitt too squeezed it too said, 'Do yous understand? Everything that yous do.' I could receive got passed out at that moment, too I got my mitt from hers too I left. ... She was precisely asset onto my hand. Because I had started to plow away from her too she held onto my mitt too she said, 'Do yous understand? Everything that yous do,' I mean, mutual depression temperature chills went upwardly my spine. That's the showtime fourth dimension I became afraid of that woman."
What was the media's response to Broaddrick's accusation?
It appears that the entirely national reporter to e'er inquire Bill Clinton almost Broaddrick's allegations was Sam Donaldson. After Donaldson's question, Clinton said, "I receive got decided ... that I would permit all hereafter questions to live on answered past times my attorneys." Donaldson speedily tried again, yell for the then-President to "simply deny it." Clinton responded, "There's been a disceptation made past times my attorney. He speaks for me, too I remember he spoke quite clearly." And that was that.
Where were the Hollywood social jurist warriors dorsum then, when the defendant was Bill Clinton? After all, Hillary Clinton 1 time said that when women brand allegations of abuse, "everyone should live on believed at showtime until they are disbelieved based on evidence." Didn't Madeleine Albright, the showtime woman individual secretarial assistant of state, repeatedly say, "There's a exceptional house inwards hell for women who don't assist each other!"?
Based on the agency the left treated Jones, Willey, Broaddrick too other Bill too Hillary Clinton accusers, that "special place" could instruct rather crowded.
