The Spin
Narrative A
Weinstein's health issues are serious and potentially life-threatening. His lawyer warns that he could die in custody if proper care isn't provided. Recent multiple hospitalizations and diagnoses demonstrate the severity of his condition, which could impact his ability to stand trial.
Narrative B
The focus on Weinstein's health distracts from the gravity of his alleged crimes. Despite his medical conditions, he must face justice for the numerous accusations against him. The overturned conviction and new charges underscore the importance of holding him accountable.
