Movie Mogulr Harvey Weinstein Banned For Life From Producers Guild of America


The Producers Guild of America took the unprecedented step of officially enacting a lifetime ban for its once illustrious member, Harvey Weinstein, after being accused of s§xual misconduct by dozens of women, the organization announced Monday.

The PGA’s board of directors began the process of terminating Weinstein’s membership two weeks ago, and the guild’s constitution gave him an opportunity to respond before a final verdict would be rendered Nov. 6. 

Instead of doing so, he chose to resign his membership, the guild said.
“In light of Mr. Weinstein’s widely reported behavior — with new reports continuing to surface even now — the Producers Guild’s National Board has voted unanimously to enact a lifetime ban on Mr. Weinstein, permanently barring him from PGA membership.

This unprecedented step is a reflection of the seriousness with which the Guild regards the numerous reports of Mr. Weinstein’s decades of reprehensible conduct. Sexual harassment can no longer be tolerated in our industry or within the ranks of Producers Guild membership. 

It’s been almost four weeks since a bombshell New York Times exposé reported “decades” of alleged sexual harassment by Weinstein.
