The New Yorker's Ken Auletta details the life and downfall of film producer Harvey Weinstein in "Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence."

Mixed Signals is back for Season 2, and this season we're following the money in the changing media business. What happens now, after the clear win by podcasts and YouTubers in the election? Is it the end of legacy media, for real this time? And can advertisers keep up with audiences' evolving media diet? To kick off this conversation, Ben and Nayeema bring on author, New Yorker writer, and media savant, Ken Auletta, who's been examining the industry since the 90s. They talk about if and how this moment feels different from previous disruptions, how Elon Musk is reshaping media, and Ken shares his, uh, colorful recollections of flying with Ted Turner, his girlfriend, and the couple's bed.

CW: This episode discusses cinematic sexual violence. Sami Gold, undergraduate political science student at George Washington University and contributor to Liberal Currents, returns to the podcast for a two-part deep dive into the controversial new Donald Trump origin story The Apprentice, which was released weeks before the 2024 election despite half-hearted attempts from the Trump campaign to block the film.  Featuring Sebastian Stan as young Donald Trump and Jeremy Strong as his notorious mentor, the political fixer Roy Cohn, The Apprentice exceeded our low expectations. Part one of our discussion is about the film itself: the challenges of depicting Trump cinematically, an evaluation of how Toronto does standing in for Manhattan in the seventies and eighties, and the mixed reaction to the film from within Trump's inner circle.  Part two of our discussion, on Trumpism in general and the upcoming election, is available on the Patreon feed.  Over 30% of all Junk Filter episodes are only available to patrons of the podcast.

On today's episode of the GaryVee Audio Experience, I'm sharing a conversation I had back in 2018 with American journalist and author Ken Auletta. We dive deep into the evolution of the advertising world, discussing the transition from the 'mad men' era to the 'math men' era. We also explore the role of data in advertising, its commoditization, and the trade-offs between convenience and privacy. As we navigate these themes, we also touch on the challenges faced by TV networks due to the rise of new technologies. This episode has something for everyone. Whether you're a budding marketer trying to navigate the digital landscape, a seasoned advertising professional reminiscing about the 'mad men' days, or even a tech enthusiast curious about the impact of data on modern business, there's a takeaway here for you.

Journalist Ken Auletta joins Tim to talk about the story of Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos from the perspective as the reporter who helped introduce the woman and the company to the world.  In December 2014, Ken was one of the first to conduct in-depth interviews with all of the major players at Theranos and their booming start-up company. Little did he or anyone know at the time how the Theranos story would unfold.  Ken talks about his coverage of Elizabeth Holmes in The New Yorker and the story that unfolded. https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/shapingopinion/Ken_Auletta_-_Theranos_auphonic.mp3 If you were to conduct an Internet search of Elizabeth Holmes today, you'd learn that one of the terms that often accompanies the 39-year-old's name is “disgraced Theranos CEO.” This is the result of the story we are about to tell. At the moment, she is appealing her federal conviction for fraud that was committed while she led Theranos, that had promised a revolutionary new way to conduct the full range of blood tests. Her story gave us a glimpse as to some of the inner workings of Silicon Valley. Homes now has to serve an 11-year prison sentence because a jury found her guilty of four counts of fraud and conspiracy against company investors. They believed in her promise to change the way blood could be collected and tested, and in turn, transform healthcare. That's where we are now. But the story started almost 20 years ago when Holmes dropped out of Stanford University. She was only 19 years old then. She left Stanford to start Theranos. Almost from the start, the company had attracted lots of money from some extremely influential investors. Holmes herself had the kind of magnetism the media likes. She was young and smart. She was a really effective speaker and salesperson. And she seemed to have a sense of personal branding long before that became a thing. She patterned herself after Apple founder and tech pioneer Steve Jobs. She wore black turtlenecks, almost exclusively. She adopted a slow, deliberate and deep speaking style that at times was almost hypnotic. She created a media persona that had others characterizing her as the female Steve Jobs. This was no coincidence, of course. It was all calculated. She was rewarded with an avalanche of positive media coverage. Elizabeth Holmes graced just about every major business magazine cover. She was billed as “the world's youngest self-made woman billionaire.” She was said to be worth $4.5 billion. Her company – Theranos – at its peak, was valued at $10 billion. Some of its well-known investors were Larry Ellison, who founded Oracle Corporation, and media titan Rupert Murdoch. Her advisors and board of directors were the stuff of envy for any company. Names like Henry Kissinger, the former U.S. Secretary of State. John Mattis, the decorated and now retired U.S. Marine general. George Schultz, another revered former U.S. Secretary of State. William Perry, a former U.S. Secretary of Defense, and others. So, how could a company so well positioned for success fail? And not only fail, but for the reasons it did? One person who's given these questions more thought than most is journalist Ken Auletta. He wrote one of the most comprehensive stories about Homes for The New Yorker in December 2014.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit smokeempodcast.substack.comThe Los Angeles trial of Harvey Weinstein ended with jurors proclaiming the disgraced movie mogul alternately guilty, not guilty, and [shrug emoji]. Nancy and Sarah plumb deeper on the trial, centered on the allegations of four Jane Does (including one spouse of a California governor). The two-month trial gained little traction in the press, perhaps because Weinstein was convicted in the court of public opinion five years ago. People are done with him, the monster in his cage. But not Nancy and Sarah! The latter goes deep on Weinstein's childhood, his bullying mother, the forces that shaped him. Nancy reminds us how much young women will sacrifice to step into the Hollywood magic machine. They discuss Ken Auletta's book Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence, and Ronan Farrow's HBO docuseries Catch and Kill.In the paid-subscribers-only content (sign up on Substack): Why are people talking about “nepo babies”? Also: Twitter, twittered, twittering. What we gain (and maybe lose) when we step away from social media, and why it's always better to complicate the picture.

On this week's episode, Sonny Bunch (The Bulwark), Alyssa Rosenberg (The Washington Post), and Peter Suderman (Reason), talk about the sad state of Junot Diaz. Semafor's Ben Smith interviewed the novelist about his odd career limbo; why can't folks who were accused of misbehavior before being exonerated get their reputations back? Then the gang shifts to a cleaner Me Too target: Harvey Weinstein and the movie She Said, based on the book by Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor about their efforts to unveil the producer's monstrous behavior towards women. Sadly the movie isn't that good, and we try to understand why. (On this episode we also mention Ken Auletta's book, Hollywood Ending; Sonny talked to him a couple of months back about Weinstein and his enablers.)

In this episode of Influencers, Andy sits down with ‘Hollywood Ending' Author Ken Auletta to discuss his latest book on Harvey Weinstein, Ken's career in journalism, and the future of media.

How was Harvey Weinstein able to continue his abuse of women for so long – over four decades? Journalist Ken Auletta explores the enabling “culture of silence” in his book Hollywood Ending.

Author Ken Auletta has been the chief political correspondent for the New York Post, a weekly columnist for the Village Voice, contributing editor at New York magazine and contributor to The New Yorker since 1977.  He is the author of twelve books, including five national bestsellers —Three Blind Mice: How the TV Networks Lost Their Way; Greed and Glory On Wall Street: The Fall of the House of Lehman; The Highwaymen: Warriors of the Information Superhighway; World War 3.0: Microsoft and Its Enemies; and Googled: The End of the World as We Know It. His latest book, Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence, serves as a biography, an examination of the circumstances that led to the abuses and the final chapter of Auletta's reporting on Weinstein that began with a New Yorker profile two decades ago. Ken Auletta and Alec discuss Auletta's upbringing in Coney Island, his early career in politics and the culture of Weinstein's many enablers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

20 years ago, New Yorker writer and author Ken Auletta knew film producer Harvey Weinstein was nothing less than a monster, but he couldn't prove it. His book is called "Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence".

The #MeToo movement has been one of the most impactful campaigns, giving accountability for years of sexual harassment and abuse by those in positions of power against women. There are now many once-powerful men who fell from grace to disgrace as their crimes were exposed -- and perhaps one of the most powerful to fall was the once much-lauded, very talented, and very, very flawed film producer, Harvey Weinstein. At The Common Good, we work to share with you sharp and informative discussions on the critical issues of the day with the highest caliber thought leaders and experts. For this episode of our TCG podcast we are honored to feature author Ken Auletta. Ken is not just a beloved longtime writer for the New Yorker and bestselling author covering everything from politics to the economy to pop culture and media in 13 books. He has profiled leading figures and the companies of the Information Age, including Bill Gates, Reed Hastings, Sheryl Sandberg, Rupert Murdoch, John Malone, and the New York Times. He is a great reporter who knows his facts. And now he who has turned his investigative skills towards the culture of silence in Hollywood. We've been honored to host Ken before and we are thrilled to have him again on The Common Good Podcast with this important book, Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence.

In spite of the supposed transparency of the internet age, more and more we live in the age of complicity. Last month we saw it with the trove of documents and stories that came to light about UBER. Tim Miller's recent book about Trump's enablers shows how it's happened repeatedly in the White House, just as Michel Lewis showed us, several years ago, how it happened on Wall Street in the face of the 2008 financial crisis. For 20 years in Hollywood, the complicity around the actions of Harvey Weinstein was airtight. What is it about Hollywood and Wall Street and politics that encourages and even condones such complicity in bad behavior? Long-time media journalist Ken Auletta tells the thirty-thousand-foot view in telling the story of Harvey Weinstein, his rise and fall, through the lens of his enablers and his victims in his new book Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence. My conversation with Ken Auletta:

Join Host Buzz Knight and author Ken Auletta talking about his new book called "Hollywood Ending-Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence"  

In 2002, journalist Ken Auletta tried to expose Harvey Weinstein's sexual abuse of women in a New Yorker profile he was writing about the powerful film mogul, but his sources were unwilling to go on the record. It would take another 15 years for the full story to come to light through Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey's reporting for the New York Times and Ronan Farrow's for the New Yorker. For his new book, “Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence,” Auletta revisits the story that got away and offers up a fascinating portrayal of Weinstein's life and career. And for this bonus episode, he talks with Katie about what exactly motivated Weinstein to commit such horrific acts, the culture of complicity that enabled him, and the current state of the #MeToo movement that his toppling set in motion.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Since 2017, more than 80 women have come forward to accuse Harvey Weinstein of sexual harassment or assault. In 2022, the former movie studio mogul was sentenced to 23 years in prison for rape. Throughout his career Weinstein was riding high with films like Pulp Fiction and Shakespeare in Love. So the question is how did Weinstein manage to lead a parallel life that lasted for decades in which he abused women. I talk to writer Ken Auletta about his book Hollywood Ending and the culture of silence in the movie business.  “Now What?” is produced with the help of Steve Zimmer, Annika Hoeim and Alex Wolfe. Audio production is by Nick Ciavatta.

Mediaite editor Aidan McLaughlin speaks with legendary media reporter and New Yorker writer Ken Auletta about his new book on the life, downfall and imprisonment of Harvey Weinstein, "Hollywood Ending." Auletta discusses his 2002 profile that almost exposed the movie mogul, how Hollywood and the media helped him conceal his crimes for so long, the NBC News-Ronan Farrow row, and the eventual reporting and prosecution that brought Harvey Weinstein down.

Auletta wrote 'Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence.' Len and Michael ask Ken why it took so long for Harvey to be busted. Ken said people knew if they spoke against Weinstein their career would be over.

Writer, journalist, and media critic Ken Auletta reported on Harvey Weinstein 20 years ago.But the story continued to nag at him. What was at the root of Weinstein's monstrousness? How, and why, was it never checked? Why the silence? How does a man run the day-to-day operations of a company with hundreds of employees and revenues in the hundreds of millions of dollars, and at the same time live a shadow life of sexual predation without ever being caught? How much is this an account of Harvey Weinstein, and how much is this a report about Hollywood and power?He never stopped working on the story. He continued to communicate with Harvey, even in prison, to go deeper to embed Harvey's narrative within the context of his childhood, his relationships, and the movie business. Film stars, Miramax employees, old friends, and family all talked to Ken at length. The result is the biography, "Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence."

Washington Post staff writer Sarah Ellison speaks with author and journalist Ken Auletta about his latest book “Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence,” which chronicles Weinstein's path to power, his downfall and the culture of silence that enabled his rampant sexual abuses. Conversation recorded on Tuesday, July 26, 2022.

A new biography from Ken Auletta explores how Harvey Weinstein became one of the biggest power-players in Hollywood... and one of its most widespread perpetuators of abuse. From the very beginnings to the Me Too movement, Auletta covers the life of Weinstein in his new book Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence.

President Biden and the Democratic Party are lauding the passage of the first major gun rights legislation in decades. It's a small victory after the Supreme Court ruled to expand gun rights, and Chicago could be the measure of its success. The city is struggling with high levels of gun violence and lethal crime: in 2021, it experienced one of its deadliest years in recent memory, with almost 800 homicides. The state of Illinois is also bracing for the impact of the Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade, as although abortion access remains legal there, it's surrounded by states where bans are coming into effect, meaning local providers could be overwhelmed. Chicago's Mayor Lori Lightfoot recently announced she is running for reelection, and she is currently in Europe to champion the city's economic recovery. She joins the show from the sidelines of Fintech Week London.  Also on today's show: political economist Ahilan Kadirgamar, who took part in the Sri Lankan protests; author Ken Auletta, whose new book Hollywood Ending deals with the Harvey Weinstein saga; Tim Miller, author of Why We Did It, which explores his involvement with the GOP.

There is perhaps no greater authority on policing in America than Bill Bratton. But Bill Bratton is not only an expert on policing, he was also in the key position to assist in combating terrorism in the wake of the 9/11 attacks and subsequent terror threats in New York and Los Angeles. Join The Common Good as Ken Auletta, best-selling author extraordinaire and famed columnist for The New Yorker, leads a conversation with Commissioner Bratton on Bratton's new book, “The Profession: A Memoir of Community, Race, and the Arc of Policing in America” as a jumping off point. We'll look at Bratton's extraordinary career, how policing has changed (for good and bad) over the years, and get his thoughts on national security more generally. Bratton was known for improving community relations with the police and significantly reducing crime rates. How did he do it? Can we do it again? With crime rates rising, particularly violent crime, we need to know. Don't miss this essential conversation. During a 46-year career in law enforcement Bill Bratton, ever results-driven, instituted progressive change while leading six police departments, including seven years as Chief of the Boston and Los Angeles Police Departments and two nonconsecutive terms as the Police Commissioner of the City of New York. He is the only person ever to lead the police agencies of America's two largest cities. In the words of our Honorary Advisory Board member and former Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson, Bill Bratton is “America's police commissioner.”

We thought we knew everything about the Murdochs. Then we met Ken Auletta. He's one of the best media reporters in the biz — four decades at The New Yorker, a handful of bestsellers under his belt, and quite a few encounters with the Murdochs along the way. He tells us what the family is like up close, and what the future holds for their diminished empire.Want to read some of Ken’s work?

Frenemies (2018) examines the tumultuous, love-hate relationship between the marketing and advertising industries. Taking its name from the toxic friendship model which leaves both parties wondering if they’re friends or enemies, Frenemies considers the disruption which has destabilized our traditional conceptualization of marketing and advertising. Taking a closer look at the effect of the internet age, Auletta theorizes that technological advances have forced our industries to adapt and evolve in ways which are both toxic and beneficial. *** Do you want more free audiobook summaries like this?

For years there were allegations that Harvey Weinstein had assaulted women. This week he was found guilty of two counts of sexual assault, including rape, and faces up to 29 years in prison. So, how did the Hollywood titan create his downfall? The New Yorker’s Ken Auletta has been covering Weinstein since 2002, and tells us how Weinstein became one of the industry’s most influential players and how his power led to his fall from grace. Documentary maker Ursula MacFarlane spent time with many of Weinstein’s victims and explains why putting him behind bars is a new beginning for victims of sexual abuse.

BusinessWeek once called him “the James Bond of the media world.” The Columbia Journalism Review declared “No other reporter has covered the news communication business as thoroughly.” And the truth is, there’s a lot about the world that we wouldn’t understand if it wasn’t for journalist Ken Auletta—from his profiles of powerful people to his keen instincts for industry reporting. But how did working in politics lead him to journalism? Why does he think the press can be such a motivator for good? And what’s his trick for landing so many high-profile interviews?

Harvey Weinstein’s criminal trial is underway in New York City. While the allegations against him were finally made public in October 2017, whispers of Weinstein’s alleged abuse go back decades. And so does the reporting on it. In this episode, we look at the small but dogged community of journalists who spent years trying to break the story open, including two who got tantalizingly close, The New Yorker's Ken Auletta and The Hollywood Reporter's Kim Masters. Taken together, their stories represent a decades-long, cross-country hunt for the hardest truth in Hollywood. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Magnolia Pictures’ SCANDALOUS: The Untold Story of the National Enquirer, charts the thrilling origin story and influence of (in)famous supermarket tabloid the National Enquirer. The paper that former editor-in-chief Steve Coz called “the most perfectly placed piece of propaganda in America.” SCANDALOUS is the sensational true story of the most infamous tabloid in US history, a wild, probing look at how one newspaper’s prescient grasp of its’ readers darkest curiosities led it to massive profits and influence.

This is a pretty scary book—Ken Auletta catalogs the rot in the ad industry, starting with the rebate fracas that broke out at the (now-infamous!) Association of National Advertisers meeting in 2015. Why’s it so scary? Well, for one thing, it lays bare long-standing, unsuccessfully-addressed problems with the business model on which the ad agency operates. And it explains a lot about why agencies have been struggling with everything from client service to profitability, to pricing, to talent, to working conditions. …and that’s not even the really scary part. The REALLY scary part is what happens to an advertising income-supported culture if/when advertising income goes away.So, if you have a problem with feeling too optimistic about the future, or slacking off at work, read this book and meditate on the future. It’ll fix that for you. And make you a more wide-awake, effective professional.As far as things I wish were different: It’s a less scholarly work that The Attention Merchants, there’s a LOT of reliance on the point of view of one person (Michael Kassan), which leaves you looking for a wee bit more balance at times (or maybe that the bad news would stop). None of these quibbles dim the books appeal, though. Just keep them in mind…Links for the show: Ad Age article: Good summary of the rebate issue, and gives you a sense of how the story developed before 2015MediaLink website: Worth checking out!

On this special episode of Recode Media, you get two interviews for the price of one: First, Recode's Peter Kafka talks with Jessica Pressler, a New York Magazine staff writer whose longform story about a New York City high society grifter, Anna Sorokin, became a viral hit online. Pressler explains how she reported that story in a matter of months, and why Sorokin's con worked so well. Later in the show, Kafka is joined by New Yorker media critic Ken Auletta, who's the author of a new book called "Frenemies: The Epic Disruption of the Ad Business (and Everything Else)." Auletta says advertising is in peril as people have shifted to smaller screens and ad-free media viewing. He also expains why media companies like Fox and Time Warner are trying to sell, and recounts how he tried (and failed) to break the Harvey Weinstein story in the early 2000s.

Ok a few months back I ran an online summit where some of my music industry expert mates came on and gave some lectures. And today I’m replaying one such lecture with my good buddy Rod Yates who is the editor of Rolling Stone Magazine Australia.   Rod and I go back many years, we’re both from good old Canberra, and Rod and I played shows when my band Alchemist played gigs with his band who were called Henry’s Anger, and they were a great band- go and google em. Anyhow Rod has now become a gate keeper if you like for one of the world’s most prestigious music print media brands. He’s the editor of Rolling Stone Magazine Australia, and even during this hectic period of digital disruption, Rolling Stone seems to be holding it’s own.

If president-elect Donald Trump learned anything from his mentor Roy Cohn, it was this: punch first and never apologize. Cohn was notorious for going on the attack—as counsel for Senator Joseph McCarthy during the communist witch-hunts of the fifties, and later as a pugnacious attorney for whom the only bad publicity was no publicity.
