So Oprah knew about that shit?

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 98 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Oprah was a frequent flyer to Epstein Island and was friends with Weinstein. She also promoted John of God, a faith healer, on her show, and he was later prosecuted for sexual assault and rape. She pulled out of producing a documentary on Russel Simmons when it started investigating the allegations against him.

She also platformed Drs Oz and Phil, neither of which has been accused of sexual crimes (that I'm aware of), but I mention them because they are shitty scam artists.

There is a multi part behind the bastards on Oprah.

I feel like he went pretty easy on her - lots of sympathy for her upbringing, criticism for her schools but not for shitty stuff like this.

The kinda fucked up ex gf of Kurt Cobain, I can't remember her name, who was a bit of an enfant terrible in those hollywood circles back in the day has famously warned every woman ever to not go near weinstein into a camera back then, long before he was ever actually accused of anything.

So my personal guess is that yes, all those rich and famous people knew that shit. Same as with the epstin stuff. Just a bunch of degenerate rich fucks who think normal people are theirs to use as they please.

Courtney Love. That was in 2005.

Very interesting that everyone tried to pin Kurt Cobain's suicide on her after that.

Jesus Christ that’s disheartening
