It really is amazing all of the books that are written.
I think you guys are right about the courage involved by those women who came forward. It’s easy to say what everyone else would do, but Ambra Battilana Gutierrez, the woman on the wire who did come forward, found herself attacked by the gossip columns and even with the tape, had the prosecutor decline to prosecute. Or what about that story where Weinstein had some guy in a headlock at a public event with photographers taking pictures and not one got released? Most people would fold like deck chairs. And I’m not sure I would bet on myself.
