The Weight of Silence and Compliance
Miramax Executive
What makes me most angry...is the silence...No one spoke out then and no one's talking about it now...he built the silence...And people complied...He produced fear and intimidation...The only alternative seemingly was to quit. And to throw away everything you had worked so hard for out of the door. You were terrified you'd be the next target. So people looked the other way.
