Frank talk: American actress Lena Dunham and her new disclosure on Harvey Weinstein! Know about her struggles with recurrent urinary tract infections!
Late disclosure of Harvey Weinstein’s sexual assault case
Harvey Weinstein’s sexual assault case is one case that seems to never leave the pages of the tabloids and news websites. Every day there is some new disclosure coming out and one wonders what was it that had made people remain quiet for so long.
American actress Lena Dunham has now claimed that she had warned Hillary’s Communications Director about Harvey Weinstein’s behavior.
Dunham said that when she was working last year with the Presidential campaign, she had put the facts about Harvey in the ears of the Clinton spokesperson, Adrienne Elrod.
She had told Kristina Schake, the campaign’s deputy communications director on it thus:
“I just want to let you know that Harvey’s a rapist, and this is going to come out at some point, I think it’s a really bad idea for him to host fundraisers and be involved because it’s an open secret in Hollywood that he has a problem with sexual assault.”
The magazine editor Tina Brown also spoke about this and how she had warned the Clinton administration about Harvey. Harvey has claimed not guilty in these cases against him.
It is said that a coalition of companies and people formed the growing “Weinstein Sexual Enterprise” and these people worked with Weinstein to keep secret his various sexual harassment and assaults. He had used his power and connections to conceal facts until now.
