we did have a lawyer meeting with ken and harvey weinstein, bob, his brother bob weinstein, and theirtrying to extract more information. but really, the two women that we knew about had signed non-disclosure agreements. they weren't willing to come forward. and in order for us to publish, we have to know things, not just guess at them. this is not the tabloid press. this is not, you know, "tmz" or whatever it is. we have to know. but i can't say that in the intervening years, i haven't been tortured almost by the knowledge that this guy was most likely doing what he turned out to be doing. i mean, it's a terrible thing. but in order to publish -- and it's not just a matter of not being sued, but about being right. >> seth: sure. >> and doing the right thing, you have to know. and ronan farrow came along and he did an extraordinary job. and he worked beautifully and he was new to the "new yorker" and he worked with deirdre foley-mendelssohn and david rhode and others. and our lawyer and checkers and really nailed it. and the competition between the "new yorker" and the "new york times"

harvey weinstein has what, 90 accusers at this point? the people who are terrible are the minority they just do it over and over again. they also happen to be the big alpha guys who are deciding how stones get made and who is going to star. it is not just that the world is being run by men. narroweing run by a from af men who benefit system that privileges aggression and violence and a lack of regard for other people's humanities and rights. when women bring all of themselves into those rooms and start to really act like women, who might peel off from the alpha and feeling other things are possible? men are harder on each other than they are on us. if you have a 13-year-old boy, there is a lot of suffering in it. a lot of horrible choices to be made. my advice is be a woman. always be a woman. bring what you know about life as a woman. what you know about taking care and find allies in the men because there are more of them around here. help them find their strength. help them speak out. support them when they do, don't tell them they ar
