HOLLYWOOD

HARVEY WEINSTEIN’S PREDATORY ABUSE WAS ONE OF HOLLYWOOD’S worst-kept secrets. For many years, he harassed women, using his wealth and power to coerce them into sex. Some even say he raped them (which he denies). Now, due to investigations by The New York Times and The New Yorker, Weinstein has been disgraced and fired from his eponymous studio. In retrospect, the bevy of awkward jokes and knowing looks that actors and comedians exchanged over the years takes on a new, sometimes chilling significance.
