Weinstein Company employees want to be released from NDAs

Multiple employees of The Weinstein Company want their non-disclosure agreements to be terminated so they can join the discussion about their scandal-scarred former boss, Harvey Weinstein.

A group of unnamed staff members from the production studio — which was co-founded by Weinstein and his brother, Bob, in 2005 — released a letter stressing their desire to be let out of their NDAs now that Weinstein has been accused of sexually harassing or sexually assaulting dozens of women over the years.

"We all knew that we were working for a man with an infamous temper," says the statement given to The New Yorker. "We did not know we were working for a serial sexual predator."

"We knew that our boss could be manipulative. We did not know that he used his power to systematically assault and silence women," the statement said. "We had an idea that he was a womanizer who had extra-marital affairs. We did not know he was a violent aggressor and alleged rapist."

His treatment is a sham.

Wealthy people get resort treatment, ordinary people get jail and prison.
