Harvey Weinstein is a multiple-award winning movie producer who has much fame to his claim. This time, he earns infamy by being fired from his own company because of a number of sexual allegations made to his name. The board of directors of The Weinstein Company, a New York-based film studio, has terminated their acclaimed co-founder after unearthing several cases of sexual harassment made against him by co-workers and actresses. It was reported that Weinstein has been subjected to many such cases in the past, but after a recent article surrounding his sexual misconduct with the actress Ashley Judd, things went viral. It is rumored that Weinstein has also performed similar ill deeds with iconic actresses like Nicole Kidman and Meryl Streep.
