harvey weinstein has denied all allegations and also says any sexual relations were consensual.aps we can explain what's the nda ism is shorthand for nondisclosure agreement, and it is a contract, i pay y°u agreement, and it is a contract, i pay you a sum of money and you cove na nt to pay you a sum of money and you covenant to be quiet and not say all the misdeeds i have been doing. historically, they were there to cover up things that were like civil roles, like i had been rude, perhaps i had discriminated against you on grounds of pregnancy, disability, something of that kind. that might be morally reprehensible but that is what happened. what has happened in more recent yea rs what happened. what has happened in more recent years is they have been extended and are being used for the rich and powerful to buy their way out of police scrutiny, out of regulatory and tax scrutiny and that i think is not acceptable. in the way this man has spent £500,000 and serried ranks of seven lawyers have come forward and he is now strutting around london whilst, my wife, my children, may wel

i think it is kind of funny because matt damon did get caught up in harvey weinstein, the fact that he planted, not so serious it would be even funnier. he had the mark in regard to brett cavanagh. i think he was unhinged in his testimony, angry and upset, must be hard on his family, hard on doctor ford, but his answering of the democratic senators questions was over-the-top and raises real question about his judicial temperament but the fbi gets involved this week as long as they don't have limitation, it will be a good thing and america needs to get past this while addressing issues that have been brought up. ed: scott went to something democrats are doing, trying to make the case he was so angry at you know brett kavanaugh, you can weave that in but the point is new york times, boston globe him of the story saying he was sewing we, so unhinged in their words that he won't be an impartial umpire. on the other hand his supporters are saying he has been unfairly and wrongly accused, what is wrong with him being mad as hell? >> you expect somebody who has been falsely accused, piling on

did you get a lot of pressure on the harvey weinstein story? are there two sides to that or was it just gung ho? >> you know, harvey weinstein, who i had met once or twice, nobody ever says he was one of our biggest advertisers. when we started working on the story and i was deeply involved in the story, when he called and he wanted -- going back to your earlier point, he wanted to talk off the record. and i said, i don't talk off the record. first off, i don't talk to people who are the subjects of stories without a reporter in the room. first thing. secondly, i don't talk off the record to people who are the subjects of investigative stories. he was upset. he lobbied a lot of people, but -- and it was interesting but there was never any thought about not pursuing the story. >> but you had to pause before you published it until you finally felt you had nailed it. what happened? >> the moment -- we had a little debate in the newsroom. we heard just as we were nearing the end of it we heard that the "new yorker" was working on a story. >> it was

not everybody is a harvey weinstein.with the crimes he allegedly committed but the threshold should be that high. i hear people saying, oh, you can't bring up the presumption of innocence because that's only counting but that's one of the best ideas that we have here in this country. i think if it were anybody personally being accused of something, if it was anybody's father or husband, they would want it to be held to a high standard and i think it's important and the lowering of that standard is part of why tensions are so high right now. >> olivia, thank you so much for coming on and brian, you stay right there to get your take on the media's role in all of this after the break. billions of mouths. billions of problems. dry mouth? parched mouth? cotton mouth? there's a therabreath for you. therabreath oral rinse and lozenges. help relieve dry mouth using natural enzymes to soothe and moisturize. so you can... breathe easy, there's therabreath at walmart. and i heard that my cousin's so, wife's sister's husband was a l

matt damon got in hot water for almost covering for harvey weinstein. is he somebody who should be speaking out about brett kavanaugh right now? >> "snl" thinks he should. it's comedy. it's comedy, and i think it's funny because matt damon did get close to getting caught up in harvey weinstein, so the fact that he's playing it, if it wasn't so serious, it would be funnier. i think he hit the mark in regard to judge kavanaugh. i understand he was upset and must be hard on his family, much like it's hard on dr. ford. his question -- his answering of the democratic senator's questions over the top, and raises questions about judicial temperament. but i think the fbi getting involved this week, so long as they don't have limitation says a good thing, and america needs to get past this while addressing the issues that have been brought up in regardtotomy too movement. ed: let's get brad in here. scott went to something with the democrats, trying to make the case he was so angry. you know judge kavanaugh and worked with him in the george w. bush white house,

think of the case today, harvey weinstein, i consulted briefly on one of the e-mail issues in that cased the main accusers, accusation against him dismissed today. evidence came out that a detective suppressed that the main accuser told a friend that she had willingly and voluntarily engaged in oral sex with harvey weinstein to be cast in a role, having presumably testified under oath that he forced her to have sex. women do lie. they lie for economic reasons. i agree that most women tell the truth but most isn't enough to convict somebody. you need proof beyond a reasonable doubt. technically, sonny is a good lawyer, she is correct. but if you have elements that cast doubt on the word of the woman, then corroboration certainly helps strengthen the case. >> tucker: so you're allowed to doubt a woman's word, that's still legal. is this a sex-selective question? t is it-- do we believe women more than we believe men? >> first of all not only are you allowed, but if you're on a jury you are obliged to presume the innocence of the defendant which means you cannot presume that the witness is

everything else in the record i know about brett kavanaugh is he is not bill cosby and he is not harvey weinstein. this is about power, it's not about sex, and if you are a serial rapist and you drug people in high school, you don't get over it. this is about power. every woman in the workplace who has been supervised by brett kavanaugh has nothing but good things to say. it doesn't add up to me. the third accusation is complete garbage that he was a gang rapist. jeffrey: stay on dr. ford for a second. i am curious about this. you are a former prosecutor. you understand in any of these situations, the nature of the crime is that there are no witnesses. senator graham: most of the time it is he said, she said. jeffrey: how do you explain from your understanding of the perspective of trauma and memory, the idea that she says this guy was on top of her, she knew him. she knows it is brett kavanaugh. what is the tripck of the mind? senator graham: number one, he is presumed to be the bystander. if you are accused of a crime, we will give you the presumption. here is what i do as a lawyer. it's good t

got the list goes on senator jila brand i really really believe dr ford you're friends with harvey weinstein i mean the democrats have absolutely become uncredible from head to toe on. issues of sexual assault in my view ok let me go to let me go to robert before we go to the break here i mean if you look at the pattern from the letter from the ford letter. to feinstein all the way to now convinced me it wasn't all preplanned unpackaged convince me it wasn't go ahead robert sure i mean i think the only thing that could defend of ford is that she does give off signs of a misplaced memory so i defended a lot of people that have been victimized by various forms of abuse and salt and i learned early on how to try to distinguish between what was a good case and what was not a good case and she gives all the signs of a bad case now that means that she could possibly sincerely believe it and she could have misattribution issues so that for her it may not be a politically manipulated ivette i have no doubt however that senator feinstein and her so-called attorneys in this case were in fact political

what happened happened with harvey weinstein, and then everyday people were moved to say you know whatas happened to me too. what's happened over the last year is that major media outlets haven't focussed on the people who have said me too. there's been so much focus on individual bad actors an individuals in hollywood that everyday people whose lives have been opened up have no recourse and have no resources. and we keep coming back to the stories of these big large figures. we're not really talking about the everyday people, or the systems of power and privilege that allows sexual violence to happen in their lives. >> why do you think that is? do you think it's journalists being attracted to the shiny object? >> i do. >> or being lazy? >> well, now, that's your words. i'm not calling all journalists lazy. but what i am saying is that there is a cycle of how we love salacious gossipy headline. we love celebrity and things that make big headlines. this is my thing. as a human being if you saw a hash tag affected 12 million people in 24 hours, that's the reality. 12 million people engag

some of the first to raise their voices and talk about what they had suffered at the hands of harvey weinstein. this is not to take anything away from the story. but again it's about that proximal power that some women have come very often white women, wealthy women have two white patriarchy that can get their stories recognize as human and also serve as the shock, like all, if they can happen to them, then sexism, sexual assault must be real if it can take a toll on their careers. then we come to things happen to me at my cubicle or on the factory floor, weight, then that might also be sexism, even though everything is to me like that doesn't exist anymore. we are post sexism. christine blasey ford is the third, and i thought a lot watching her and they can you how much i admire her testimony and i wept when she started speaking because of realized i had not heard this woman's voice was in yet here it was. i also thought a lot how to read a lot about anita hill's testimony in her describing how the all-white all-male senate judiciary committee in 1991 had trouble actually recognizing her, com
