Tentative settlement announced.

“Harvey Weinstein has reached a tentative $44m deal to resolve lawsuits and compensate his alleged victims of sexual misconduct, according to reports.

The deal, which has been reached with his accusers, his former film studio’s board members and the New York attorney general’s office, was reported by the Wall Street Journal and Associated Press.”

lol, so what these women are saying is that it's ok what he did as long as they get paid. Isn't that why they let him do what he did to begin with? Prostitution comes in many forms lol.

A very famous man once asked a beautiful woman at a high-society party, "Would you sleep with me for a million dollars?"

She said, "Wow, a million dollars, that's a LOT of money! Yes, I guess I would."

He then asked, "Well, would you sleep with me for ten dollars?"

She snapped indignantly, "Are you kidding? What do you think I am?"

He replied, "We've already established what you are. Now we're just haggling over the price."

The settlement might not stop some of the rape charges.

It just may be the best way to get Weinstein where it hurts him the most...and I'm all for that! ...hopefully they get the money before he loses all that he has.

And that is how it is done, people....


Who you know, how much dirt you have on them, and how much money do you have.... and you too, become the extra privileged.

He should basically spend the rest of his life in a prison cell.

How about this, if the criminal indictment does not work out, could he still be sued for damages as a civil suit action? A lot of these actresses have the money to bring a civil suit against him, I would think. But I guess that might not do as good they figure, compared to an indictment?
