The List Of People Owed Money By The Weinstein Company Has Been Revealed
In the wake of The Weinstein Company’s bankruptcy filing, there is a long line of folks who were owed money and are now left holding the bag. Sadly, that bag was only designed to hold ten pounds but is now bursting forth with 200 pounds of Harvey Weinstein‘s kale pesto and artisanal kombucha rehab shits. Deadline reports that the list of creditors owed money by TWC is a real doozy and includes a lot of expected names, like Quentin Tarantino, and more than a few head scratchers, like Malia Obama.
According to Deadline:
Some of the thousands of names on the 394-page list of people owed money by the bankrupt company jump off the page, among them David Bowie, Michael Bay, Malia Obama, Boris Becker, Ryan Coogler, Daniel Radcliffe, Robert De Niro and Darlene Love.
Malia is owed money because she worked as an intern at TWC last year which Deadline says was before the toxic Harvey sludge had oozed its way all the way out onto the streets and into the media. Zoe Brock, one of Harvey’s accusers, is also listed as a creditor and I am so mad for her.
Of course it’s not all famous people and women who Harvey did wrong on the list. There’s also regular businesses on there including “An Office Depot in Cincinnati” which is the name of my loose adaptation of Glengarry Glen Ross and “an exterminator in Brooklyn”. Just think, if that exterminator had been paid properly, maybe Harvey would have been gassed out like the cockroach he is years ago!

The Weinstein Company Has Declared Bankruptcy
Hit your Wheel of Fortune bankrupt whistle and your Price is Right losing horn, because The Weinstein Company has officially declared bankruptcy. According to Variety, TWC filed for Chapter 11 yesterday. If you work at Harvey Weinstein’s Arizona rehab, maybe go track him down in whatever hammock he’s taking his post-waffles nap in (sorry – self-reflective rehabilitation moment) and let him know.
The Weinstein Company Will Be Sold After All
At the beginning of this week, it was reported that negotiations on a $500 million sale of The Weinstein Company failed to materialize, and that they would therefore be declaring bankruptcy. According to the Los Angeles Times, a deal was reached yesterday between TWC and an investment group led by Maria Contreras-Sweet and Ron Burkle. And just like that, The Weinstein Company has been saved! Wait, why is no one cheering and pumping their fists in the air? Oh that’s right, because it’s The Weinstein Company.
The Weinstein Company Has Announced They Will Declare Bankruptcy
Four months ago, Harvey Weinstein was given a farewell party by The Weinstein Company after dozens of sexual assault/harassment allegations were made against him. Harvey is no longer part of the company he co-founded with his brother Bob Weinstein. Bob, who reportedly didn’t want anything to do with his brother to begin with, was rumored to want to change the name of the company, which was followed by trying to sell it. Then there was talk that the sale might not go through, and it looked like TWC would end up declaring bankruptcy. Much like the dirtiest, greasiest Tupperware bowl at a yard sale, nobody bought TWC. So bankruptcy it is.
