I have resigned as an advisor to Harvey Weinstein, Bloom tweeted on Saturday.
My understanding is that Mr. Weinstein and his board are moving toward an agreement.
He has, certainly, a very bad temper and thats a big part of the problem.
Hes well-known for that.
Hes a big, loud guy.
People are intimidated by him.
Im a big-mouth lawyer myself.
Blooms mother, lawyer Gloria Allred, had spoken out against Blooms decision to advise Weinstein.
I only represent those who allege that they are victims of sexual harassment.
But her daughter defended her reasons in statements toVariety.
I have a different kind of law practice, Bloom said.
My mother does only plaintiff side discrimination and harassment work.
Thats another area where we differ.
I believe in family before business.
But now, Bloom is out.
Though, an earlier statement from Bloom stated Weinstein denies many of the accusations as patently false.
In another statement, Weinsteins lawyer Charles Harder added the producer is preparing a lawsuit against theTimesfor its report.
The New York Times published today a story that is saturated with false and defamatory statements about Harvey Weinstein.
We sent the Times the facts and evidence, but they ignored it and rushed to publish.
We are preparing the lawsuit now.
All proceeds will be donated to womens organizations.
According to The Weinstein Company, Weinsteins indefinite leave of absence began Friday.
