The controversy surrounding Weinstein intensified even more when America learned that feminist attorney Lisa Bloom was representing him. This surprised many people, seeing as Bloom has represented many women who accused high profile men of sexual assault. Some people called Bloom’s representation of Harvey hypocritical and opportunistic, considering his involvement in turning one of her books into a mini-series.
However, following the massive backlash, Bloom announced her decision to resign from her role as an advisor to Weinstein.
Additional updates will follow this story as new developments arise.
