Harvey Weinstein's HR departments were 'weak'

Hollywood film producer, Harvey Weinstein, asked insiders for support to prevent his ousting from the Board, following an exposé which found he sexually harassed several female employees over decades.

According to a New York Times investigation, Weinstein was accused of harassing female employees and aspiring actresses, including Ashley Judd and Rose McGowan, and covering up allegations for over nearly three decades. Just hours before Weinstein was sacked by the Board of his company, The Weinstein Company, he sent an email to his Hollywood associates, saying he was "desperate" for help and called for the film industry to support him.
