It's amusing how his issue is medicalized.
Sad, really. This is the left's approach to any deviancy until they can get it fully accepted. They're in a pickle here with Weinstein, because they've pushed a (largely false) narrative about "rape culture" - when we have an example of one of theirs literally engaging in this sort of thing, he's a "sex addict" and "needs treatment" -
Let's see how sympathetic they are if staff at Koch Industries start making similar allegations against their boogeymen. I suspect pitchforks and torches over rehab.
Maybe I'm wrong about that (but I'm not.)

But ole Bill Cosby was strung over the coals as soon as the first few accusations came out. Not saying Cosby isn't a scumbag either, but it seems like the entire media went ape shite over destroying Bill Cosby but it's taken decades to expose the worst-kept secret in Hollywood about Weinstein.
Well, yeah. Weinstein supported Dems. Cosby said black folks need to work harder.

does this sort of rehab ever work? seems like it would be hard to stop his ways, outside of being castrated...

WTF ?
Cosby accusations went back to the mid 1960's when Harvey Weinstein was a damn teenager only to be challenged 40 years later when Burress called him out.
Weinstein accisations only go back to the early 80's ( 1984) ? Dude is a up & coming amateur compared to Cosby. Within 3 days Weinstein has lost his reputation , job with the company he founded & talks of renaming The Weinstein Co. etc....He's getting his.
I know Cosby was briefly a political hero to White Conservatives,but no need to lie to prove some false narrative. Sorry you lost Cosby.

I don't think so. No medical proof of it working (speaking of pedo issues)

Probably the same rehab center Roman Polanski went to.

Come back with new a fresh ideas...
They make this sound like an exciting time don't they!

Things have moved pretty quickly, but we'll see.
I don't think it was "White Conservatives" that saved Cosby, though. He had an enormous amount of goodwill built up through his children's programming, then the long running family sitcom - I mean, white, black, brown, grey, plaid - every kid of the '80s wanted Cosby to be their dad.
Until they found out he could slip a little something into your drink while he changed into his robe.
"Never meet your heroes" - damn right. In fact, be careful about having them in the first place.

Polanksi and Weinstein are both Jews. Who do you think runs the media in this country, especially in Hollywood? They are protecting their own.

So he’s taking the Roman Polanski approach. Bold strategy.
Worked out OK for Roman Polanski. He's living in the south of France banging 15 year old models.

We're told Weinstein still believes he can get help, come back and make a fresh start. As a source close to Weinstein put it, "He wants to come back with fresh, new ideas." As we reported, he and his team are in settlement discussions with The Weinstein Co. and the idea of him serving in some outside capacity is still on the table
Roman Polanski is loved by Hollywood. There is precedent.

As far as I'm concerned, castration is the only way, or a bullet in the head. I have to deal with these types of people on a near daily basis, and it is amazing the mental gymnastics they go through to try to justify their actions to themselves and others.

Before or after he goes to criminal trial?

Polanski is free on a technicality.
He was tried and initially sentenced but the final sentence was never set because he fled. Euro nations weren’t going to extradite one of their own over a sentencing issue.
Weinstein hasn’t been charged or faced trial yet and he’s American. Unless he goes somewhere like Venezuela with no treaty or lives in the Ecuadorian embassy, he could still be hauled back.

Sounds like the Pedo charges are coming.
