Harvey Weinstein drew up a secret “hit list” of nearly 100 actors, publicists and producers as part of a strategy to silence his sex assault accusers, a new report says. The disgraced movie mogul personally created the 91-person list in early 2017 as reporters were working to substantiate rape and sex assault allegations, according to the Guardian newspaper. The list contains the names of several actresses who have since come forward to accuse Weinstein of preying on them — including Rose McGowan and Laura Madden. A typed note on the document appears to suggest that a Weinstein spy had already gleaned information about Madden by February 2016. The note said that Madden had a “very bitter” view of the Oscar-winning producer, the Guardian reported.
