The Weinstein Wall and "How it Really Happened"
A lot of men have recently hit the wall that seems to have (finally) been built by Harvey Weinstein ... today's fallen list of perpetrators includes Matt Lauer of NBC's Today Show who was recently accused of "inappropriate sexual behavior" during the 2014 Olympics. In very few hours, more stories of his misconduct have surfaced covering many years. Was the swift (?) handling of Lauer and today's "transparency" NBC's request for redemption after burying the Weinstein story?
More big news today ... John Conyers may not seek reelection (mixed reports) and a call to Congress has been made seeking a list of all members names' who have been covered for their previous misconduct with undisclosed payments made on their behalf. What cover-ups lurk there?
And, yes, there's more ... the Washington Post reported that the HLN documentary originally titled, "The Monica Lewinsky Scandal" has been retitled, "How it Really Happened" after Lewinsky tweeted her disapproval of the original. It seems that in the current climate, Lewinksy's voice was honored.
Has the tipping point been reached?
As we consider the society we hope to become, consider watching Monica Lewinsky's Ted talk:
Monica Lewinsky - The Price of Shame
