That's what is happening in Hollywood, right now. Several women (finally) came forward and accused Harvey Weinstein, a powerful Hollywood mogul, of being a "casting couch king," and then women from all over the Hollywood scene jumped on the bandwagon and revealed the fact that they had been similarly sexually abused, not only by Weinstein, but many others in positions of power, and with the ability to promote, of hinder their careers. And the victims were not limited to women, as many MEN came forward and told of THEIR experiences on the casting couch. Hollywood has been shown to be the "soft underbelly" of slime in that regard, but it only took ONE courageous woman to uncover the slime. Everybody knew this was going on, but accepted it as "part of doing business" in Hollywood. New starlets (and male stars) knew "getting screwed by the boss" was just "business as usual," in order for them to get ahead, and the bosses loved it, because they got a lot of sex. Some of the most famous people have been so accused, and often by others just as famous. Hollywood may never recover from this scandal, if scandal is even a strong enough word. (Journal Star)
