At an emergency meeting Thursday, the mogul’s concern with taking a leave of absence was that there were no assurances that he would be allowed to return at some point in the future.
While Harvey Weinstein told The New York Times that he is planning a leave of absence as co-chairman of The Weinstein Co. following the paper’s exposé, the mogul doesn’t want to be banished from his company permanently.
Last night, the Weinstein Co. board held an emergency meeting — a scream-filled session of infighting among members — in New York with Weinstein present. At the meeting, Weinstein’s concern with taking a leave from the board and his role as co-chairman was that there were no assurances that he would be allowed to return in the future, a source tells The Hollywood Reporter. On Friday, Dirk Ziff resigned from TWC’s board. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/harvey-weinstein-pleads-his-case-at-explosive-board-meeting-1046362
