THE DOWNFALL OF HARVEY WEINSTEIN: HOLLYWOOD'S WORST-KEPT SECRET
Episode 173 | Historical Events
In this History episode we focus on the fall of Harvey Weinstein — how decades of sexual abuse were maintained through NDAs and institutional silence, how investigative reporting made it impossible to ignore in 2017, the trial and conviction, the 2024 appeal that overturned the New York conviction, the 2025 retrial and new conviction, and what the case reveals about how power protects itself.
Hollywood's worst-kept secret. For forty years. Dozens of people knew.
