I don't disagree that the majority of Hollywood is left-wing, but I take that as a function of the movie industry being nearly exclusively concentrated in America's most urban cities, and with theater and arts being liberal pursuits. With much of Hollywood hiring being based on who you know and who you're represented by (agent-wise), seems pretty obvious that an industry in extremely liberal cities, fueled by kids studying the liberal arts, is going to have a high concentration of liberals. That some of the few actors/producers who are conservatives are going to feel besieged seems, well, also obvious. A left-wing oil worker in North Dakota/Texas is going to feel similarly isolated, doesn't mean the industry is inherently and inextricably anti-liberal.
In any case, Harvey Weinstein has no relevance here. It's no big surprise that a scumbag acts like a scumbag, or that he tries to change the subject when exposed. No different than when Bill O'Reilly blamed far-left activists and "forces of evil" for ending his career [0].
