“Saturday Night Live” finally addressed the one thing that everyone else in the entertainment industry is talking about: Harvey Weinstein. The show attacked the disgraced film producer twice, in a sketch and during Weekend Update, tackling both the searing accusations against him and the larger problem of women and sexual harassment in Hollywood. In the first sketch, the women of “SNL” discussed harassment in Hollywood in the style of an industry roundtable, with Kate McKinnon playing Debette Goldry, an old school actress who lived through a darker time in the industry. The panel, including Leslie Jones and Cecily Strong, described the industry as it is in the real world: A place where sex abuse is rampant and typically swept under the rug. Good Friday, where do you want me to start,” McKinnon said.
