(The Hill) – Actress Jennifer Aniston expressed her frustration with cancel culture this week, explaining in an interview that she’s “so over” it. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal published Tuesday, Aniston said she refuses to put people who made mistakes in the same group as disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein. Weinstein, 71, is currently serving a 23-year prison sentence after he was found guilty of a criminal sexual act in a case in New York. Weinstein, who became the face of the #MeToo movement after dozens of women came forward with allegations against him, was sentenced to an additional 16 years earlier this year in a criminal trial in Los Angeles over other sexual assault charges. “I’m so over cancel culture,” Aniston told the Journal. “I probably just got canceled by saying that.""I just don’t understand what it means.… Is there no redemption? I don’t know. I don’t put everybody in the Harvey Weinstein basket," the actress added.Anis...NFL player Caleb Farley remembers father killed in NC home explosion: 'He raised me to be a stand-up guy'
