Matt Drudge says Weinstein is ‘complicated’ – recalls ‘magical evening’ with him

I don’t know about this tweet. I just don’t know.

I dunno man, guy gets accused by eight women of sexually harassing them, I wouldn’t go tweeting about my “magical evening” with the dude. I guess that’s just me.

Oh also, a really sick disgusting new accusation just surfaced against the guy, and the woman is out and public about it.

Weinstein then dismissed the two staffers in the kitchen. According to multiple women who spoke to HuffPost on the condition of anonymity who said they had similar experiences with Weinstein, he has started out meetings or interactions with other people in the room and then dismissed them to be alone with women in order to make advances.

Once they left, Sivan says Weinstein leaned in and tried to kiss her. Sivan rejected that attempt and told him she had a long-term boyfriend. Weinstein then said to Sivan, “Well, can you just stand there and shut up.”

At this point, Weinstein and Sivan were in a vestibule between the kitchen and bathrooms. The only way for Sivan to get away from Weinstein required her to get past him and go through the kitchen. Sivan says she was trapped by Weinstein’s body and was intimidated.

Weinstein then proceeded to expose himself to Sivan and began to masturbate. Sivan said she was deeply shocked by Weinstein’s behavior and was frozen and didn’t know what to do or say. The incident in the vestibule didn’t last long, Sivan says Weinstein ejaculated quickly into a potted plant that was in the vestibule and then proceeded to zip up his pants and they walked back into the kitchen.

Well. OK then.

And ironically, all the late night hosts don’t want to touch that story – really brave, aren’t they?

Sorry to sign off Friday with that terrible image, but hey, have an open thread and try to deal with the psychological damage that way!
