A Hollywood sex abuse story, tangentially related to the #metoo Judge Kavanaugh story.
In June of 2018, an ex-GF of AMC TV host Chris Hardwick went public with Harvey Weinstein style charges against him, specifically using his power and status to have her blacklisted from Hwood work. Her charges were precise and damning, which he denied, but caused enough of a stir that he was removed from his hosting job. Because there were no criminal charges made, AMC announced they were going to do some investigating. A case of He said She said, in August, AMC decided that the charges were bogus and he was reinstated.
Chris Hardwick backstory: He is married to Lydia Hearst (daughter of Patty Hearst). They are a very wealthy couple. He is a known liberal shill and hater of Trump. He is a pop culture nerd of the highest order. He wants you to follow the stars. Nerd/tech/gamer boys love him.
There are two possibilities.
1) is that she is a lying nutter and made the charges to get back at him for either personal or professional reasons. In Hollywood, publicity, no matter what the circumstances, is considered a good thing. Especially when #metoo is the hot thing, her going public might have been the perfect play, as she would likely gain supporters who could turn her flagging career around.
2) is that he did exactly what she claims he did. She says she has proof. AMC investigation - stall tactic, time to coordinate a response and cover story.
If 2, that suggests to me Chris Hardwick is very important to the cabal.
