[Blind Gossip] When a woman accuses a man in Hollywood of misconduct, she needs to be prepared for him to try to undermine her credibility by smearing her character.
Someone is looking to sell a package of dirt that they believe will damage the character of one of this rich and famous Hollywood man’s accusers.
While we have not viewed the mystery package, we were told it consists of text messages, risque photos, etc. that portray the accuser as someone who has had affairs with married men; as a bad mother; and as someone who was willing to sell her body to get what she wanted.
It will be interesting to see if any media outlet purchases the dirt package… and if its publication sways public opinion about the accuser or the accused.

I think this could be about Cybill Shepherd, just based on the timing. Moonves just took a really hard hit, losing his severance, so he needs all the help he can get to make him look better.
I don’t think it’s about Weatherly because it says one of his accusers, meaning he has multiple accusers. As far as I know, Eliza Dushku is the only one who’s accused him of anything – and she deserved every penny she got.

There is no excuse for sexual harassment. It should be reported.
HOWEVER…in MY opinion…
There is no excuse for claims to be made 30 years after it took place. You are not seeking “justice” at that point. You are seeking revenge or looking for a handout.
Me in my 20’s vs Me in my 30’s is night and day. I can only imagine how different I will be in my 50’s. I think that a 20yr old who commits the crime needs to be punished so they understand and learn while they’re in their 20’s.

This is absurd. It doesn’t matter what the motivation is. A crime is a crime.

No clue but this is juicy delish!

Geoffrey Rush – he’s in denial because he thinks what he did is good old boy’s fun. It’s very sad that he can’t seem to see how his power position might affect a vulnerable woman and how she could (did!) react to it. She has said that she’s factored any reaction (backlash) on her career when coming forward. I think she’s very brave and ultimately she will be on the side of right, I hope that time is now and I wish her all the best.

Harvey Weinstein.
Optional: whew, that’s a tough one! I honestly don’t know. Good way to crush the accuser, to be sure. If she is telling the truth, then I hope she can stay strong and see it through. Thing is, it will also make Harvey look worse because even IF all of the accusations are true, they don’t make Harvey look less guilty but rather the opposite.

Optional: Been there, done that. I never would have forgiven myself if I didn’t report what happened to me and another girl was victimized by the same person. Sexual abusers MUST be outed and punished, period.
