Back in October 2017, about a week after the first sexual abuse allegations against Harvey Weinstein appeared in The New York Times, I got on the phone with Bob Weinstein, Harvey’s estranged brother and a board member of The Weinstein Co. It was his first interview about the unfolding scandal, and it came at a chaotic time, with dozens of accusers going public and a growing movement to blow up the company bearing his name. The Times had reported that Harvey’s settlements with women were known to the T.W.C. board, and most of his hand-picked company directors—buddies like publishing heir Dirk Ziff, hedge fund manager Paul Tudor Jones, financier and Milwaukee Bucks co-owner Marc Lasry, accountant Richard Koenigsberg, and Technicolor executive Tim Sarnoff—had already jumped ship.
