To say that Hollywood did anything other than damage control after Weinstein seems very naive. “The media” doesn’t really have a diversity of agendas or views, they have a specific audience that they peddle outrage to in order to extract money. For example, as a bemused outside observer there’s very little difference between CNN and Fox News (admittedly I’ve seen very little of either), other than the audience they pander to. No-one is trying to downplay what he allegedly did, but that’s why we have a legal system. That these accusations have been made publicly via media outlets and not via law enforcement doesn’t help the legal case against him though, as any eventual trial has almost certainly been prejudiced already due to how widespread the coverage has been. It probably doesn’t really matter either. That public opinion (which is managed and administered by a handful of media organisations) is ultimately the highest court in the land today is all very black mirror.
