And, by the way, does it matter at all that "Too few people were willing to speak, much less allow a reporter to use their names, and Weinstein and his associates used nondisclosure agreements, payoffs, and legal threats to suppress their accounts", as was stated at the beginning of The New Yorker article?
I look forward to your response. (Pick an icon.)

The NY Times broke the story decades AFTER it all started, many years after abuse allegations were a matter of public record, after a rape allegation was already out there, after other major media outlets killed the story, and years after it was already an open secret throughout Hollywood, including jokes being made about him at award shows.
All the things he did to try to suppress it do matter. But lots of the stories were already out there despite that and the media looked the other way, most likely because he was one of "theirs" and loads of them have skeletons in their own closet.
