While appearing at an event put on by Actors Hour in New York City, Harvey Weinstein was confronted by at least three women, who claimed they were heckled, laughed at and ultimately asked to leave
"We want to address some concerns about a recent incident at Downtime," wrote the spokesperson. "A company called Actors Hour rented our bar for a private event, with a guest list all their own. Shortly into the evening, one guest began heckling another, causing a disturbance to everyone in attendance. After several requests to stop were ignored, we kindly asked the heckler to leave.
The statement continued, "Please know that our goal at Downtime is to create an environment where everyone feels welcome. We respect the privacy of our patrons and event partners, and want to ensure that all guests are treated equally, with the same service and respect. In keeping with this goal, we made a decision that would allow the evening to continue as planned. Thank you, Downtime.
The statement continued, "As an aside - Harvey in fact suggested the woman should be allowed to talk and ask him any questions. The venue’s personnel asked the woman to leave, not Harvey’s. I would just point out that he being treated as if he has been convicted. Accusations are, in-fact, not convictions. Due process is still the foundation of each and every one of our civil rights in this country. Please don’t lose sight of that definitive conviction when you write.
Weinstein offered to "address anyone’s questions." He said that, "We should all be offered the courtesy to voice opinions and be heard, and to even get answers. I am glad we all still have these rights." Weinstein stands accused of sexual assault harassment and is awaiting trial for predatory sexual assault and a criminal sexual act in the first degree. He's denied all charges of nonconsensual acts.
