Weinstein scandal exposes hypocrisy of Hollywood elite

Most of these artists, who have lost sight of what reality and fiction is, were aware of what was going on, in some cases even to their own fiancées and girlfriends, but decided to deal with the accused directly without alerting the police. In the meantime, other women were abused.

Angelo Persichilli writes that the mounting sexual assault allegations against Harvey Weinstein exposes the 'hypocrisy' of the entertainment industry's major figures, who largely remained silent despite knowing of many allegations of wrongdoing against the Hollywood super-producer.
