Coronavirus: Harvey Weinstein reportedly infected with COVID-19
^Is that some sort of bargaining plea from his no doubt formidable team of lawyers?
Mmm.
Cyrille gave me a red for this.
Obviously thinks Israel's war crimes against the Palestinian state is fine, that Israel has no influence on the USA, and, most importantly for this particular subject, believes that Jewish money has had no impact or influence on the US movie industry (aka Hollywood) for the last 90 years.
Cyrille, GFY.
I feel a little sorry for him. It's not as if he actually 'raped' anyone in the true sense of the word and his alleged 'victims' were all compliant in that they chose to submit to his demands because they wished to obtain some temporal reward.
The sentence was absurdly long and in truth very much a miscarriage but then, that's America. The guy was convicted by a MeToo bandwagon of spiteful women. Now he'll probably be dead in a week.
Covid-19 claims Harvey Weinstein consented to infection
After convicted sex offender Harvey Weinstein was revealed to have Covid-19, the disease has been quick to explain that it was a completely consensual infection.
With many criticising the coronavirus related disease for forcing itself into Weinstein’s system, Covid-19 hit back by saying that although it definitely infected Weinstein, it did so with Weinstein’s explicit permission.
Covid-19 claims Harvey Weinstein consented to infection
I'm a bit cynical when it comes to the US Penal system and money (not just the US either). Maybe it's CV, maybe it's money & lawyers combining to get him to a nicer place than a jail cell. It didn't help when a US penal official, when asked for confirmation, said "we have to protect confidentiality". I certainly know that that big time Ponzi crook Bernie Madoff (also rich & Jewish), ex chairman of NASDAQ, ain't exactly sharing his cot with a gangbanger. Jeffrey Epstein ain't exactly sharing his cot either- he ain't sharing anything!

Queen Elizabeth Strips Harvey Weinstein Of CBE, Requests Honor Is ‘Cancelled & Annulled’
Queen Elizabeth has stripped disgraced movie producer Harvey Weinstein of his honorary CBE, which she presented to him in 2004 to mark his contribution to the British film industry, The Daily Mail reported. Weinstein was found guilty of rape and sentenced to 23 years in jail in February, and is now serving time in New York.
The movie producer had been honored with a CBE — which made him an Honorary Commander of the Civil Division of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire — on January 19, 2004.
However, after his conviction, Queen Elizabeth asked for the honor to be “cancelled and annulled and that his name shall be erased from the Register of the said Order.” The notice was posted in The Gazette, the U.K.’s official public record, on Friday.

That about sums up this sordid tale, but to speak in his defence would result in no platforming, social death and every other fucking woke sanction you can think of.The guy was convicted by a MeToo bandwagon of spiteful women.
Harvey Weinstein has been given permission to appeal his rape and sexual assault conviction.
The written decision was sent to Weinstein's lawyers and according to Reuters it contained no details on what grounds may have led to the decision.

That boy's dying in prison (or leaving it dying).
Harvey Weinstein begs for mercy as he is jailed for another 16 years - and tells court 'I don't deserve it' | US News | Sky NewsDisgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein begged "please don't sentence me to life in prison, I don't deserve it" as he was jailed for another 16 years for rape and sexual assault.
Weinstein, 70, will serve the jail term after completing his 23-year sentence for a sexual misconduct conviction in New York in 2020.
It must be nice for him to know that he need not make any plans for his release. He can settle down, get a job as a librarian and possibly breed sparrows.
It seems one of the redtops will be dropping a bag of #metoo shit on Russell Brand's head tomorrow. He's already squealing about it on Youtube.
Well for a change it looks like the BBC are in the clear on this one.
Comedian and actor Russell Brand has been accused of rape, sexual assaults and emotional abuse in a Sunday Times and Channel 4 Dispatches investigation - allegations he denies.
Four women have made allegations of sexual assaults between 2006 and 2013 while he was at the height of his fame, according to the newspaper.
The Sunday Times reports that others have made a range of accusations about Brand's controlling, abusive and predatory behaviour.
In an overnight video put out on YouTube, Brand denied "very serious criminal allegations" that he said would be made against him by a newspaper and TV company.
In the video, entitled "So, This is Happening", the comedian denied the claims that he described as "a litany of extremely egregious and aggressive attacks".
The 48-year-old said he "absolutely refutes" the accusations that "pertain to the time when I was working in the mainstream".
"As I've written about extensively in my books, I was very, very promiscuous," he said in the clip.
"I don't mind them using my books and my stand-up to talk about my promiscuous consensual conduct in the past. What I seriously refute are these very, very serious criminal allegations."
He added: "Also, it's worth mentioning that there are witnesses whose evidence directly contradicts the narrative that these two mainstream media outlets are trying to construct, apparently, in what seems to me to be a coordinated attack."
Signing off the clip, he said: "Now, I don't wanna get into this any further because of the serious nature of the allegations, but I feel like I'm being attacked and plainly they're working very closely together.
"We are obviously going to look into this matter 'cause it's very, very serious. In the meantime, I want you to stay close, stay awake, but more important than any of that, if you can, please stay free."
According to the Sunday Times article, one of Brand's accusers claims she was 16 and still at school when they began a relationship, having met each other while she was out shopping in central London.
Another woman claims to have been raped by Brand at his Los Angeles home.
The newspaper details claims she was treated at a rape crisis centre on the same day and sent him a text afterwards saying: "When a girl say[s] NO it means no."
A third woman alleges he sexually assaulted her at his West Hollywood home after the pair met at Alcoholics Anonymous.
And the fourth accuser claims to have been physically and emotionally abused by him.
A female comedian, who has not been named, also recalls being "grabbed" and "bitten" in the face by Brand when they gigged together in the early 2000s.
She likens his alleged behaviour at parties to the character in the 1987 film Predator.
A comedian told the Sunday Times that Brand's name was regularly circulated in online groups of female comics.
"I know for many, many years that women have been warning each other about Russell," he told the paper.
Brand performed a live show in Wembley on Saturday evening after the allegations against him were reported.
Brand worked for the BBC and Channel 4 after breaking out with stand-up performances at the Edinburgh Festival in 2000.
He hosted Big Brother spin-off show Big Brother's Big Mouth on Channel 4 for three years from 2004, before being given slots on both BBC Radio 6 Music and Radio 2.
His time at the BBC ended in scandal in 2008 after he and presenter Jonathan Ross left a series of lewd answer phone messages for Andrew Sachs, claiming Brand had had sex with the actor's granddaughter.
Brand and Radio 2's controller quit, while Ross was suspended.
Following the "Sachsgate scandal", he moved to the US to pursue a career in Hollywood, where he starred in films such as Forgetting Sarah Marshall and Get Him To The Greek.
The comedian married pop star Katy Perry in 2010, having proposed to her outside the Taj Mahal, but they divorced in 2012.
He later returned to the UK where he met and married Laura Gallacher - the sister of presenter Kirsty Gallacher. They have two children and are expecting a third child.
In recent years, he has re-emerged as a prominent YouTuber. He has used his wide social media following to express conspiracy theories on the coronavirus pandemic, vaccine and the Great Reset.
In response to the joint investigation, a BBC spokesperson said: "Russell Brand worked for a number of different organisations, of which the BBC was one.
"As is well known, Russell Brand left the BBC after a serious editorial breach in 2008 - as did the then-controller of Radio 2.
"The circumstances of the breach were reviewed in detail at the time. We hope that demonstrates that the BBC takes issues seriously and is prepared to act.
"Indeed, the BBC has, over successive years, evolved its approach to how it manages talent and how it deals with complaints or issues raised.
"We will always listen to people if they come forward with any concerns, on any issue related to any individual working at the BBC, past or present."
Channel 4 said it was "appalled to learn of these deeply troubling allegations, including behaviour alleged to have taken place on programmes made for Channel 4 between 2004 and 2007".
The broadcaster added: "We are determined to understand the full nature of what went on. We have carried out extensive document searches and have found no evidence to suggest the alleged incidents were brought to the attention of Channel 4.
We will continue to review this in light of any further information we receive, including the accounts of those affected individuals."
Channel 4 said it would be asking the production company who made the programmes "to investigate these allegations and report their findings properly and satisfactorily to us".
The chair of the government's culture media and sport committee, Dame Caroline Dinenage MP, said it would be "closely monitoring the responses of the media, especially our public service broadcasters, to these allegations" as well as the "questions raised about the culture in the industry as a whole".
"The Sunday Times has reported some very serious and concerning allegations against Russell Brand," she said.
"In yet another story of alleged power exploitation within the TV industry, his behaviour has been characterised as an 'open secret' by those in his orbit."

FFS, shouldn't they have a duty to not report such things until police actually come up with some charges?
"Hardly.As is well known, Russell Brand left the BBC after a serious editorial breach in 2008 - as did the then-controller of Radio 2.
"The circumstances of the breach were reviewed in detail at the time. We hope that demonstrates that the BBC takes issues seriously and is prepared to act.
This Russel Brand story needs a thread of its own. He is a manipulative and disruptive attention seeking nutjob.Dispatches featured an interview Brand did on his BBC show with Jimmy Savile, who was posthumously exposed as a serial sexual abuser, where the pair discussed the possibility of Brand’s female assistant turning up naked to meet the DJ.
