Emma Thompson Says Weinstein Is Top of 'A Very Particular Iceberg' and Harassment is 'Endemic' in Hollywood

Town Hall - Lauretta Brown:

British actress Emma Thompson, in an interview with BBC that aired Thursday evening, said that sexual harassment was “endemic” to the system in Hollywood and there were “many” in the industry similar to Harvey Weinstein.
Weinstein is facing a public outcry after a bombshell New York Times report and subsequent stories detailed allegations against him of sexual harassment and rape over many years, involving prominent actresses such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Angelina Jolie.
“I didn’t know about these things but they don’t surprise me at all,” Thompson commented, “and they’re endemic to the system anyway.”
