Weinstein Fallout

More women are coming forward and accusing Harvey Weinstein of sexual harassment and rape. As the list of accusers grows, it appears more people are distancing themselves form the movie mogul, including former President Obama. And, People magazine reports Weinstein's wife, Georgina Chapman, is leaving him. CBS News' Jericka Duncan speaks to New Yorker writer Ronan Farrow, who broke the story, while CBSN's Elaine Quijano speaks to attorney Emily Compagno about the legal ramifications for both Weinstein and his company.

New York Times on Harvey Weinstein

Hollywood movie mogul Harvey Weinstein is on a leave of absence from his studio after several women alleged he sexually harassed them. The New York Times reports Weinstein reached at least eight settlements with women. Weinstein's lawyer says the report is "saturated with false and defamatory statements," and he is preparing a lawsuit against the paper. CBS News contributor and New York Times correspondent Jodi Kantor, who broke the news with colleague Megan Twohey, joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss the legal and financial trails, and why she stands by their reporting.
