Little better would be damning them with faint praise, unfortunately. The same with Weinstien. Have people beholden to you...so that means you get to fcuk them. A recurring pattern.

Just be thankful you aren't afflicted with too many unruly urges that have no legally permissible outlet, Judge. It's a luxury some don't have, apparently.

Another one has hit the headlines about how she escaped from him on 5 occasions.

On the face of it, it does sound ridiculous. Once bitten, twice shy, they say, but the bite couldn't have been too severe.

Sadly Max ..    Women are victims too often and any of us would die protecting them ,   BUT    there are also far too many False allegations that don't get the severe penalties they deserve.
AVO's as a weapon are well known and one reason so many men meet all allegations with suspicion.
This sleeze bag Weinstein has gone on for decades without any serious questions being asked .     .   We have to ask WHY --- HOW.
I shake the head = no no no , when some start proceedings many years after the alleged events.
This Might start an explosion in Hollywood ,    Reveal how some shag their way to an Oscar

Show business is just that, "show". Behind the scenes, a completely different state of affairs.

I bet there are a lot of other big name men in the movie business shaking in their shoes at the moment.
When you hear some of the things he did its simply disgusting.  He is a grown man with a famous name and business, wife and kids, and he acted more like a teenage boy on the grog.  No respect for himself or anyone else. How a grown man could be so degrading is beyond me.

Largely based on prejudice I know but I had always assumed the guy was a sleaze based on nothing more than his looks and the position he held.

I see that TV newsreader Tracey Spicer claims she is compiling an Australian list of mini-Harveys that have infested the Oz TV scene, she is threatening to "drop bombs", including claims of rape involving "powerful figures" in the past. One immediately wonders why the police were not involved.

Probably most of the same ones now lining up giving interviews about the deplorable behaviour of their mate Harvey. PYA in play for sure.

Another accessory to crime it seems.     Tracey should have flapped the gums years ago if she has 40 to name.
Camera in the bedroom maybe.

President George H.W. Bush has apologised to an actress who accused him of 'sexually assaulting' her during a photo opportunity with his wife Barbara Bush standing by his side.


Heather Lind, 34, who starred in AMC's series Turn: Washington's Spies made the allegations against the 93-year-old in a lengthy (and now deleted) Instagram post on Wednesday.

The actress said after seeing a photo of the former president shaking hands with Barack Obama at the One America Appeal hurricane relief concert, it prompted her to share her own experience.

"I found it disturbing because I recognize the respect ex-presidents are given for having served," she wrote. "And I feel pride and reverence toward many of the men in the photo.



Heather Lind, who starred in AMC's series 'Turn: Washington's Spies,' made the allegations in a lengthy Instagram post.© Getty Images Heather Lind, who starred in AMC's series 'Turn: Washington's Spies,' made the allegations in a lengthy Instagram post. "But when I got the chance to meet George H. W. Bush four years ago to promote a historical television show I was working on, he sexually assaulted me while I was posing for a similar photo."


According to Heather, the wheelchair-bound former president touched her from behind and told her a dirty joke, all while being photographed. In her account, she claims Barbara Bush "rolled her eyes as if to say ‘Not again’."





Afterwards, she explained, "[Bush's] security guard told me I shouldn’t have stood next to him for the photo."


In a statement to the New York Daily News, Bush’s spokesperson said, "President Bush would never — under any circumstance — intentionally cause anyone distress, and he most sincerely apologizes if his attempt at humor offended Ms. Lind."

Heather's accusations come amidst a wave of other reports of sexual abuse and misconduct following the Harvey Weinstein scandal.

Bobby Lulham, never heard of him, but it appears he was having an affair with his mother-in-law, who tried to poison him, unsuccessfully. Strange business.

King was well known to be a womanizer, but I don't recall any mention of prostitutes. Had such info became public back in the day, would have been harmful to the black rights movement. So obviously he had friends, or at least not enemies, keeping a lid on this information.

Loving the Ladies isn't a crime .   Mother nature put a lot of research into making things like little fish to feed the big fish.
    To catch the fish you have to use the right bait.
Much the same in all walks of life.      If the pro's can improve their lot financially, it is called good business.

In the 60's it would have been very damaging to King, who was, of course, a preacher. Was he preaching adultery, do you think ?

There has not been enough made of this by the FAKE NEWS media max.

These are the very same sanctimonious hypocrites, rapists, pedophiles and enablers, who used the Oscars, Golden Globes, Actors Guild Awards, and any other circle jerk they had going, to vilify Trump as a misogynist for some "locker room banter"!!! Wow! 

... as I've said before, Trump may have tried to 'talk the talk", but these predators, like Clinton, actually "walk the walk", and really do "grab them on the pussy"!Dead

Trump's supporters didn't miss it though, they get it ... they also "get" the jobs growth in  manufacturing, the reduced cost of energy, the booming share market, economy and overall confidence he has generated in the USA. When he gets his tax reform through, it's all over bar the shouting - 8 Year POTUS - the elitist opposition will still be indicting one another over something!Clap

I have absolutely no issues with this in fact I'd encourage more of it BUT...........

Kate Winslet locked lips with Allison Janney at the Hollywood Film Awards

Celebrity  Last night
The actresses shared a kiss during Sunday's Hollywood Film Awards, where Winslet accepted an award for her role in Wonder Wheel. "I don't really know you, but I know I just want to be you," Winslet told Janney during her acceptance speech.
