Where Do All the Disgraced C.E.O.s Go?
None of the people I’ve mentioned would comment for this article, though a spokeswoman for Mr. Weinstein told a Times reporter
that “he is taking the time to focus on his family, on getting counseling and rebuilding his life.” Anodyne answers like that don’t satisfy my curiosity.
And then there is the movie mogul, Harvey Weinstein, who was fired by his own company last week after years of allegations of sexual harassment
and payoffs to accusers came to light in an investigation published by and in a subsequent article in The New Yorker.
Mr. Weinstein also said growing up in the ’60s influenced his behavior, though he’s not
that much older than I, and I’ve never done any of the things he’s talked about.
Calls for dismissals of chief executives are everywhere: In a recent hearing, Senator Elizabeth Warren told
Timothy J. Sloan of Wells Fargo “you should be fired” over the company’s fake-accounts scandal and more.
