Jared Kushner, New York's youngest powerhouse publisher, is celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the New York Observer on Thursday, March 14th. Mayor Michael Bloomberg will be by his side to toast you all. The Observer is honoring those who have defined and shaped New York since 1987. They are celebrating the cities best, brightest and most influential in culture, media and finance. The salmon pink pages are revered among New York's elite as the preeminent voice on power.

In 2017, The New York Times investigative journalists Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey co-authored a bombshell story on sexual abuse allegations against Harvey Weinstein. Their Pulitzer Prize-winning coverage spawned a book, 2019's She Said: Breaking the Sexual Harassment Story That Helped Ignite a Movement (Kantor's second, following 2012's The Obamas). More recently, Kantor investigated the Supreme Court's decision to eliminate the right to an abortion.

"I feel afraid inside there. I can't be inside there," the jury foreperson stated, highlighting the intense atmosphere and juror tensions that led to the mistrial.

Mr. Weinstein's lawyer in California, Jennifer Bonjean, emphasized their determination to appeal by stating, 'We will continue to fight till the bitter end.'

It's a complete fabrication about my relationship with Gwyneth. I didn't put my hands on her. I didn't touch her.

"I hate when actors put themselves in false categories... When you are supporting, you should be truly a supporting player, and when you're the lead, you have to step up and go into a harder category."

The case of The People v. Harvey Weinstein revealed significant issues regarding the admissibility of prior bad acts in sexual crime prosecutions, redefining standards for future cases.

Weinstein’s lawyers argue that his stay at Rikers is exacerbating his health issues and request he be allowed to stay at Bellevue Hospital instead.
