By naming him, Judd confirms that a story published in Variety two years ago on this exact date was about Weinstein. That widely circulated article detailed the Peninsula encounter but at the time she declined to name him.

Judd added that it was necessary to come forward now: "Women have been talking about Harvey amongst ourselves for a long time, and it's simply beyond time to have the conversation publicly."

The Times reports that in total, eight women shared stories similar to Judd's, that Weinstein had a pattern of alleged misconduct. He would appear "nearly or fully naked in front of them, requiring them to be present while he bathed or repeatedly asking for a massage or initiating one himself," reports the Times.

So kudos to Judd for finally coming forward. Jeers for not doing so 2 years ago when she had the chance, or in all the years prior when it'd been going on for an admitted "long time."

Jeers to all the others who knew and either covered for him or did nothing.

Weinstein is culpable for his actions, and all who knew are culpable for allowing him to continue.
Like I said...it was pretty much an open secret in Hollywood...yet Weinstein, during all that time, gave money to women's causes, buddied up to Hillary, and was seen as a liberal champion...funny stuff...even for Dahoss
