These are the NBC execs who allegedly tried to shut down the Harvey Weinstein story and are still at the company

Ronan Farrow's award-winning October 2017 report on multiple allegations of sexual harassment and assault against high-profile film executive Harvey Weinstein is credited with shaking Hollywood and bringing the #MeToo movement into the mainstream.

Farrow called out four top executives for their roles in pushing back on and stifling his reporting, some of whom seemed to be acting in favor of their friendships with Weinstein. All of them are still employed by the media giant. Despite the story's success, Farrow's investigation process was far from easy, as he allegedly battled top figures in NBC's corporate leadership to pursue and publish the story, which he eventually took to The New Yorker after it was stifled at the broadcasting giant.
