She wrote a&nbsp;piece for The Hollywood Reporter titled: \u201cLessons from Witnessing Four Decades of Harassment in Hollywood.\u201d She says she warned top-level Democrat operatives not to allow Harvey to host political fundraisers. Her warning, she said, fell on deaf ears. Yet she gives Bill Clinton a pass though he taxed her \u201cfeminist conscience.\u201d Ahem. She believes to this day that Clinton\u2019s \u201csexual misconduct\u201d was \u201cnone of our business.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But they didn\u2019t listen to her. They hired Harvey anyway.
