Disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein hobbled into a Manhattan court Wednesday using a walker. He looked frail, but some people aren’t buying it. “Mr. Weinstein, are your faking your injury for sympathy?“ Inside Edition asked him. He did not respond, however, his attorney, Donna Rotunno, is shooting down claims he’s not really hurt. “Mr. Weinstein was in a serious car accident in August, which resulted in a concussion and has now necessitated the need for back surgery,“ she said in a statement.
