This was fairly well known, I remember the Judd piece from 2015 was rumored to be him. Lot of sexism and misogyny even in here, imagine in those insanely wealthy circles, disgusting and shameful, embarrassing behavior. All these things we love are laced with the poison of racism, sexism, white male privilege, perversion of wealth inequality.... it's a harsh truth.
the NY Times article is very clear that he didn't harass or sexually proposition ALL, or even most of the women he worked with, a very specific set of women, over a long period of years. This doesn't compromise anyone's Oscars.
It's just so sick these guys are so prone to this, just sleep with women, sleep with hookers, pick up groupies, go on normal dates, anything but sexually harass and victimize people. But, that's their perversion, of power and wealth, influence.
