Three women publicly accuse Clinton pal Harvey Weinstein of rape

Rob and I were just on the phone with the boss sort of kicking the Weinstein story around, and we all sort of suspect that a lot more people knew about his behavior than are willing to admit it. We can't prove it, but it seems to be the nature of the completely phony world that is Hollywood. But the story just got a lot more disturbing than it already was, if that's even possible. And it is:

Three women––among them Argento and a former aspiring actress named Lucia Evans—told me that Weinstein raped them, allegations that include Weinstein forcibly performing or receiving oral sex and forcing vaginal sex. Four women said that they experienced unwanted touching that could be classified as an assault. In an audio recording captured during a New York Police Department sting operation in 2015 and made public here for the first time, Weinstein admits to groping a Filipina-Italian model named Ambra Battilana Gutierrez, describing it as behavior he is “used to.” Four of the women I interviewed cited encounters in which Weinstein exposed himself or masturbated in front of them.
