Welcome to "Full Frontal."
I am Samantha Bee.
In case you didn't realize, it has been a huge week for women.
Starting last week, when America encountered
this season's second giant vortex of destructive moisture
named Harvey.
FEMALE REPORTER (VOICEOVER): Hollywood grappling
with the mounting sexual harassment
scandal against Harvey Weinstein, one
of the industry's power players.
Weinstein, the studio head behind "Pulp
Fiction," "Good Will Hunting," and "Shakespeare in Love."
Remind me never to rent the producers
cut of "Pulp Fiction."
When the scandal broke, Weinstein
made an apology-like statement in the "New York Post" saying,
"I've got to change.
I've got to grow.
I know a lot of people would like me to go into a facility."
Oh my god.
I'm so behind on the slang.
Is a facility what people call hell?
At least in Weinstein's letter, he
showed concern for the victims, specifically himself.
MALE REPORTER (VOICEOVER): "I came of age in the '60S
and '70s, when all the rules about behavior in workplaces
were different.
That was the culture then."
Oh, give me a break, White Cosby.
Nobody asked for your all about mea culpa.
Don't blame the '60s and '70s for your shitty decision
making.
Its serial sexual harassment, not a Monkees tattoo.
The stories emerging from the actual victims
paint a real picture of Harvey Weinstein, specifically
a Hieronymus Bosch picture.
Oh, look, Casual Friday at the Weinstein Company.
He cornered me in this vestibule
and leaned in and-- and tried to kiss me,
which I immediately rebuffed.
And I thought it would end their.
But that's when he blocked the entrance-- or exit, for me.
He immediately exposed himself and, you know,
began pleasuring himself.
Pleasure?
I'm sorry.
I seem to have completely forgotten what that word means.
But these are just some of the sexual harassment allegations
we know about Harvey Weinstein.
Asking Ashley Judd to watch him shower
and masturbating to Lauren Sivan before ejaculating
into a potted plant is just the beginning.
And for anyone who questions her story,
the evidence was clear when that plant bore
fruit the following spring.
There's even a recording made by the NYPD of Weinstein admitting
to assault. Of course, they didn't,
like, charge him or anything.
It's not Mariska Hargitay's New York,
but at least they made a recording.
I'm not gonna play it here, because, well, ladies, we've
heard it all before.
It's all my gross little pee-pee will get so sad if you don't
come in this room with me.
I'm gonna ruin your career.
You're making me dick feel so sad.
The recording goes on after that for, I want to say, a month.
Predictably, Republicans popped a few tic-tacs
and moved on the Weinstein scandal
like a bitch for partisan gain.
Hollywood is outspoken on President Trump,
but has next to nothing to say about Harvey Weinstein.
If these allegations are true, the past 20 years
of Weinstein's life have been one long,
Trump "Access Hollywood" video.
It's been ridiculously hypocritical of them.
Yes, Weinstein is exactly as bad as Trump.
I demand that we impeach Harvey Weinstein immediately.
Call your representative in the Hollywood Congress
and demand they act now.
I mean, look, both parties have had
their share of sexual harassers and predators.
This is about men.
Sorry, woke bros, but guys can be creeps.
Hashtag not all men.
The extent of their creepiness seems to be a surprise
to everyone, except women.
That's why all the men on my staff
have a strict code of conduct.
It's for their own protection.
We women have know men were gross since our sixth grade gym
teacher said good job at the end of class,
then massaged our shoulders that were somehow
on the front of our bodies.
And it doesn't get any better in adulthood,
because sexual harassment is rampant in every profession
imaginable, medicine, finance, technology, academia,
publishing, restaurants.
We tried to find one place where women were safe.
So we googled sexual harassment Antarctica
and we found this article from five fucking days ago.
You can't even go to the most remote part of the planet
without some dude swinging his cold, shriveled dick your way.
No wonder Harvey thinks the entertainment industry
will support him.
There's one industry that isn't even
trying to get rid of sexual predators and that is politics.
But showbiz is finally starting to clean house, only a little,
but it is something.
So listen up creeps of Hollywood, we know who you are.
Weinstein isn't the only cool Democrat lurking
in film festival hotels waiting to play
a jolly masturbation prank.
Women talk to each other.
And we talk to journalists.
And we talk to lawyers.
It's 2017.
We don't have to put up with this shit.
We are coming for you.
Talk to everyone.
Talk to every woman you work with like she
has the "New York Times" on speed dial.
Well, I guess it took the "Times" a little while
to take care of business. OK.
Talk to every woman like she has me on speed dial.
My show is only once a week.
I've got some free time.
We'll be right back after this important message from me.
