EXCLUSIVE: The national board of directors of the Producers Guild of America
will hold an emergency meeting Saturday to expel Harvey Weinstein from the
guild. A knowledgeable source says it’s virtually certain Weinstein will be
kicked out of the guild for his predatory sexual practices that recently came
to light.
知名影视新闻网站“Deadline.com”的抢先爆料指出︰
美国制片工会(以下简称PGA)的全国性董事会，将在本周六为了话题大亨“温董”哈维
温斯坦的会籍去留问题招开一场紧急临时会。一名知情来源透露︰由于温董近来陆续
被爆出私下对女演员施有与性相关侵略行为的丑闻，他的会籍被工会撤销几乎已成定
局。
“He will be kicked out,” a source told Deadline. “I’m proud that we’re
doing this.”
这位不具名爆料者直率指出︰“他(温董)会被踢出去，而且我也会对我们正在做的这件
事感到骄傲。”
This epitomizes the dramatic fall of Weinstein. Just four years ago, the PGA
honored Harvey and brother Bob Weinstein with the Milestone Award, the guild’
s most prestigious honor recognizing an individual or team who has made
historic contributions to the entertainment industry.
这则消息也象征著温斯坦的戏剧性殒落。四年前，PGA才赐与他与他弟弟包柏“里程
碑奖”，也就是工会中对娱乐产业有历史性贡献的个人或团队颁发的最高荣誉。
PGA national executive director Vance Van Petten has sent emails to members
of the guild’s national board of directors informing them of the vote and
steps the PGA plans to take to address the systemic practice of sexual
harassment in the industry. In the email sent Wednesday, he told the board
that the guild’s presidents, Gary Lucchesi and Lori McCreary, “are calling
for a Special Meeting of the Board of Directors for this Saturday, October
14th at Noon (PST) to discuss urgent Guild business and VOTE on an
appropriate course of action.”
PGA全国总会的常务董事Vance Van Petten，在最近向工会全国理事会的成员寄出多封
E-mail，提醒他们︰PGA内部已经计画对这次震撼演艺圈的性丑闻采取实际行动，那就
是为此举办会员投票，他甚至还补充了投票的相关细节与步骤。在这封于美国时间
星期三寄出的电子信中，他另外告知收到信的成员一件事︰工会的共同主席Gary
Lucchesi 与Lori McCreary“已经要求在本周六西岸时间中午举办一场理事会专属的
特别会议，讨论工会中最迫切的事务并在适当的流程下举行投票。”
He also included the passage from the guild’s constitution that allows for
the expulsion of members. It states that “Any member of the guild who shall,
in the opinion of the national board of directors, be guilty of any act,
omission, or conduct which is prejudicial to the welfare of the guild…be
censured, fined suspended, expelled from membership or his membership
otherwise terminated.”
他也在信中补充PGA内部规章中可以撤销某特定会员会籍的条件，以下为规章摘录的
中文翻译“此工会中任何成员，只要在全国理事会成员的定义中，有做出任何犯罪
、失职或对工会利益有害的行为，得以被谴责、罚款、停权，甚至驱逐或终止会员
的资格。”
“The guild feels that it needs to lead the way on this,” another source
told Deadline. “Everybody is putting out statements about how deplorable
sexual harassment is, but the PGA really wants to do something about this
systemic problem in the industry.”
另一位与PGA相关的消息源亦对记者表示︰“工会感觉他们必须在这事件扮演领导者的
角色。大家都在发言指出性骚扰是多么糟糕，但PGA更想要对这个产业中系统性的问题
作一些实质的后续贡献。”
The British Academy of Film and Television Arts yesterday suspended Weinstein
’s membership, and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is also
holding a meeting Saturday to discuss Weinstein’s membership.
负责颁发英国金像奖的英国影艺学院稍早已经决定对温斯坦的会籍停权。而在另一端，
颁发电影界最大奖奥斯卡的AMPAS，也会在美国时间周六开会讨论温董会籍的相关事宜
。
