Harvey Weinstein was voted out of Hollywood's premiere organization, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, on Saturday in the latest rebuke to a longtime movie production heavyweight who has been entangled in a growing sexual assault scandal.
The Academy's board of governors, which has 54 members, voted to "immediately expel" Weinstein in a move that breaks 90 years of precedent as other Hollywood figures who dealt with sex scandals in the past, like Roman Polansky, have not been kicked out.
"We do so not simply to separate ourselves from someone who does not merit the respect of his colleagues but also to send a message that the era of willful ignorance and shameful complicity in sexually predatory behavior and workplace harassment in our industry is over," the board said in a statement. "What's at issue here is a deeply troubling problem that has no place in our society. The Board continues to work to establish ethical standards of conduct that all Academy members will be expected to exemplify."
