Perhaps the men in Hollywood might take a look inside their own closets prior to commenting on the Harvey Weinstein sexual assault reports.
Actor Ben Affleck recently admonished Weinstein after the liberal Hollywood icon and Democrat donor was outed as a pervert who spent decades sexually harassing and assaulting women. Affleck himself was outed shortly thereafter for having groped actress Hilarie Burton.
Award-winning director Oliver Stone took a different path to the same result. He actually defended Weinstein and was immediately outed by a former Playboy model for assault as well.
Despite dozens of alleged female victims having been subjected to Weinstein’s assaults, the “Platoon” director decided to empathize with the aggressor instead.
“I believe a man shouldn’t be condemned by a vigilante system,” Stone opined. “It’s not easy what he’s going through, either.”
Why, was he groped and raped too?

Former Playboy Playmate, Carrie Stevens, almost immediately responded by accusing Stone of having grabbed her breast at a party over 20 years ago.
According to Stevens, Stone acted like you’d expect an oddball who, but for money or fame would never attract attention from the opposite sex, would act.
He “reached out and…honked it like a horn,” she recalled, comparing Stone to the “immature guy in elementary school who snaps your bra.”
Two of a kind! When I heard about Harvey, the first person I thought of was Oliver Stone, and it figures..here… https://t.co/EHRfrgbVsL

When I heard about Harvey, I recalled Oliver walking past me & grabbing my boob as he walked out the front door of a party. Two of a kind!

Stevens told the Daily News that she was surrounded by others who witnessed Stone grabbing her, but nobody was willing to say anything.
“That’s what’s going on in Hollywood,” she explained. “That’s why things have to change. He’s Oliver Stone. Nobody’s going to say anything.”
Stevens believes there are likely other victims of his behavior, just as there were many victims of Weinstein’s behavior.
“If they do it to one, they’ll do it to as many as they can get away with,” she said.
Stone was a Bernie Bro this past election cycle, eventually voting for Jill Stein.
Of Hillary Clinton, Stone said she “scares me” due to her hard-line foreign policies, but called Donald Trump “too erratic” to occupy the Oval Office.
Do you think Hollywood is a cesspool of such behavior? Share your thoughts below!
Love where this is going. Even batman. HaHa.
To me it is a two way street. Remember years ago Red Book wrote an article for women. The article said use your sex to get promoted and if you don’t get the promotion sue for sexual harassment, you win either way. Seems as long as the fame and money is there no one comes forward until years later when those two possibilities are gone. Before everyone goes crazy am not justifying any of their actions just pointing out it isn’t just one sided.
Can’t these guys keep their hands to themselves? I bet they squeeze every piece of fruit, and vegetable in the market when they shop too. Of course groping is terrible, but an outright affair is OK. Seems some people have a really strange sense of values.
I refuse to believe “counterfeit” Hillary Clinton is mentally ill–I just think she is “emotionally unhealthy” and unhappy–by the way she sort-of gingerly denounced Harvey Weinstein. After all, since she was a student at Yale, and while she was an attorney at the Rose Law firm in Arkansas, all the way until now–she has been a man-hater like lions who go after red meat. Yet, she was a bit reserved–according to her usual standards–when speaking out against Weinstein as if she still has hope he’s coming back to donate a few bucks into her or the liberal democrat coffer. And what makes this a liberal democrat BIASED MEDIA story is the fact that the liberal democrats and the liberal democrat BIASED MEDIA were NOT covering it. Yet, by trying to keep this Weinstein story secret and quiet, the liberal democrats and BIASED MEDIA said a lot–especially about themselves.
Jack who?
Makes one wonder if anyone besides Clint & Jack are sexually moral in Hollyweird? LOL
“and so is D.C” and “didn’t conservatives Roger Aisles, Bill O’Reilly and Donald Trump do the exact same thing”
1. To begin with, why pivot to the bad behavior of others? Those in D.C. who do such things deserve the same fate as Horrible Harvey, but let’s not divert attention from the open secrets in Hollywood now seeing the light of day. These hypocrites are in a class by themselves because of their pretense of being the champions of women and the downtrodden whereas they are just the opposite. They also supported Barack Obama, under whose regime poverty increased by 23%, food stamps by 39% and the national debt by almost 100% with noting to show for it and wanted Crooked Hillary to continue the economic destruction the Obama started by stifling the economy on behalf of liberal causes without a shred of evidence.
2. Roger Aisles, Bill O’Reilly and Donald Trump are not even in this league – they were accused of lecherous comments about women, but neither was accused of laying hands on anyone or forcing them into having sex with them. The accusations against Trump only started when he became a threat to Crooked Hillary, and all his accusers have disappeared back into obscurity. Walking into a ladies dressing room and bragging about the extra testosterone you used to have is not in the same league as what Horrible Harvey and others in Hollywood are accused of.
Disappointed in Oliver Stone for standing up for Weinstein when he is just as guilty. Hypocrites! It also came out yesterday that John Travolta’s insured has paid out thousands for him groping other men (7 men I believe). I hope this is the start of bringing down all the perversion in Hollywood especially with child actors. Hollywood is definitely a cesspool of disgusting behavior & so is D.C.
