Harvey Weinstein has been ousted from his own company after a bombshell New York Times report detailed nearly three decades of inappropriate behavior towards women in Hollywood.
The film producer and cofounder of Miramax Films and The Weinstein Company built an empire from scratch out of Buffalo, New York.
A behemoth in the media industry, he became a major fundraiser to the Democratic party, positioning himself as a liberal lion and champion of feminism.
But these ideals have come up against the reports he harassed women for years, roiling public opinion and leading to his firing Sunday.
