The #MeToo movement has been one of the most impactful campaigns, giving accountability for years of sexual harassment and abuse by those in positions of power against women. There are now many once-powerful men who fell from grace to disgrace as their crimes were exposed -- and perhaps one of the most powerful to fall was the once much-lauded, very talented, and very, very flawed film producer, Harvey Weinstein.
At The Common Good, we work to share with you sharp and informative discussions on the critical issues of the day with the highest caliber thought leaders and experts. For this episode of our TCG podcast we are honored to feature author Ken Auletta. Ken is not just a beloved longtime writer for the New Yorker and bestselling author covering everything from politics to the economy to pop culture and media in 13 books. He has profiled leading figures and the companies of the Information Age, including Bill Gates, Reed Hastings, Sheryl Sandberg, Rupert Murdoch, John Malone, and the New York Times. He is a great reporter who knows his facts. And now he who has turned his investigative skills towards the culture of silence in Hollywood.
We’ve been honored to host Ken before and we are thrilled to have him again on The Common Good Podcast with this important book, Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence.
