The deal would end nearly all lawsuits by actresses and former Weinstein employees who accused him of offences ranging from sexual harassment to rape

Harvey Weinstein and the board of his bankrupt film studio have reached a tentative $25 million settlement with dozens of women who accused the former Hollywood producer of sexual misconduct, The New York Times reports.

The accord would end nearly all lawsuits by actresses and former Weinstein employees who accused him of offences ranging from sexual harassment to rape, the newspaper said. Weinstein would not be required under the settlement to admit wrongdoing or pay anything, and insurers for the former Weinstein Co studio would fund the payout, it added.

Weinstein has been accused of sexual misconduct dating back decades by more than 70 women. He has denied the allegations, saying any sexual encounters were consensual.

Did the Clinton Foundation help Harv with that? They sure loved getting their picture taken with the pervert. Birds of a feather...

Give this man an Oscar!

I don't mind this. Payouts are likely the only justice these women will ever realistically obtain, and financial pain is the only thing that will motivate a studio to rein in this kind of behaviour. Plus, the chance of jail time actually still hangs over him. B-

A walker, thats rich! Better actor than I thought. Probably sore knees from begging!!
