Flashback – Al Franken on Harvey Weinstein: ‘Appalling’ Behavior, ‘All Too Common’

Share:

Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) was accused Thursday of groping a female journalist while she slept and forcefully kissing her without her consent during a USO tour in 2006, almost immediately calling to attention a statement the senator released in October about similar inappropriate behavior from now-disgraced film mogul Harvey Weinstein.

In October, Franken issued a strong condemnation of movie producer Harvey Weinstein, who has been accused by dozens of women of sexual harassment, assault, and abuse.

“The women who have shared their stories about Harvey Weinstein over the last few days are incredibly brave. It takes a lot of courage to come forward, and we owe them our thanks,” Franken said at the time. “And as we hear more and more about Mr. Weinstein, it’s important to remember that while his behavior was appalling, it’s far too common.”
