Harvey Weinstein is back in the headlines after reportedly suffering heart failure while incarcerated in New York, but the internet’s reaction has been anything but gentle.
The disgraced Hollywood producer, 74, is “recuperating and resting at Bellevue Hospital,” his publicist Juda Engelmayer confirmed to the Los Angeles Times. TMZ reported that Weinstein was moved from Rikers Island to Bellevue Hospital’s prison ward after suffering heart failure connected to pneumonia and having difficulty breathing.
According to TMZ, Weinstein had been awaiting sentencing in New York when the health scare happened. The outlet reported that doctors placed him on an IV, monitored his heart, and treated him with antibiotics. Deadline also reported that a representative described the issue as “severe breathing issues” and said he would remain hospitalized for at least the next few weeks.
But while the medical update was serious, the internet turned the story into a dark roast almost immediately.
