Celebrity attorney Lisa Bloom offered Harvey Weinstein a smear campaign against Rose McGowan in unearthed letter
Renowned victims' rights attorney Lisa Bloom worked with disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein behind the scenes to map a plan to discredit one of his most high-profile accusers, Rose McGowan.
In"She Said: Breaking the Sexual Harassment Story That Helped Ignite a Movement," Times reporters Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey published the confidential memo from Bloom to Weinstein that was written in December 2016, in which Bloom offered her background as a victims' rights advocate as an asset. McGowan has alleged that Weinstein raped her at the 1997 Sundance Film Festival for which she later received a $100,000 settlement from him.
Bloom also proposed"positive reputation management" via search-engine-optimization, starting a foundation focused on gender equality, and a pre-emptive press conference talking about Weinstein's evolving stance on gender issues.
