Many people already seem to think she knew quite a bit, but NBC's Today host failed to ask:

Despite leading an entire interview based on the importance of the first amendment, Savannah Guthrie failed to ask Meryl Streep one major question about Harvey Weinstein during her pre-taped discussion with “The Post” star that aired Thursday morning.

The TODAY SHOW host Guthrie interviewed Streep and co-stars Tom Hanks and Bob Odenkirk to discuss their new movie, which tells the story of The Washington Post’s decision to publish the Pentagon Papers in 1971, hailed as upstanding moment for the free press.

Like many interviews with Hollywood stars as of late, the conversation eventually turned to the issue of sexual misconduct in Hollywood, specifically, the allegations against Harvey Weinstein.

Although Rose McGowan, who is one of Weinstein’s most vocal accusers, claims that Streep knew how Weinstein was treating these women for years, Guthrie failed to ask 68-year-old actress about the allegations against her. Instead she allowed Streep to speak about the subject on her own terms.

And anybody who feels Streep knew more than she let in on should decidedly skip every future movie she does, and maybe avoid her past productions on video too. Which include at least a few from Miramax and/or the Weinstein Company, and I'm sure some folks have already decided to write them off as not worth the financial bother. Streep's career is past its bedtime.
