A flood of allegations poured in on Tuesday against Harvey Weinstein in on-the-record reports that detailed claims of sexual abuse and included testimonies from Gwyneth Paltrow and Angelina Jolie, further intensifying the already explosive collapse of the disgraced movie mogul.
The women's allegations against 65-year-old Weinstein were made in an bombshell expose published by the New Yorker. Weinstein denies all charges, according to a statement from his spokeswoman Sallie Hofmeister, circulated among United States media.

But former president Barack Obama and presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton have weighed in to condemn the Oscar-winning producer, a longtime Democratic Party donor who has become a political liability.
His wife, British fashion designer Georgina Chapman, said she was leaving Weinstein, with whom she has two children.
New Yorker writer Ronan Farrow spent 10 months interviewing 13 women who reported they were harassed by Weinstein.
