No one loved him. Even before all this bs, he and his brother were known for being colossal assholes. However, they started a corrupt, yet successful Oscar campaigning system that forced actors and actresses to suck up to them, literally and figuratively. How do you think crap like Shakespeare in Love wins all kinds of awards? Remember, most Academy voters don't even watch most of the movies, they vote how they are told by others. I'd certainly take odds that Streep, Paltrow and Lawrence among many others performed sexual favors for Weinstein in exchange for his support in Oscar campaigning.
The worst to me is Ellen Degeneres. She treats her long-time friendship and political partnership with Harvey Weinstein as if it never happened. He was close to pretty much all the big progressives in Hollywood, donated tons of cash to Democrats and encouraged actors and actresses to campaign and speak for them. Yet she now attacks him and others and just completely pretends like she didn't know anything and they weren't collaborating for years and years.
