The latest is filmmaker James Toback, who was the subject of an investigative piece in the Los Angeles Times over the weekend. Toback directed movies like Black & White and Two Girls and a Guy and, according to the Times, used his stature to approach women on the street (usually in Manhattan), where he would promise to make them into stars. But 38 women — including 31 on the record — said Toback instead engaged in sexual harassment and lewd behavior. The Times released a follow-up piece describing how 200 more women had reached out to the newspaper after the initial story to say they, too, had been sexually harassed by Toback. Over the last 14 days, he is bombing on Social, with a 96 percent negative score. –Alex Shultz
