The board of Hollywood's Academy, which runs the Oscars, has revoked Harvey Weinstein's membership following an emergency session to discuss his sex scandal.

More women continue to come forward with allegations against him.

Film producer Emily Best doesn't think Weinstein is the only guilty party.

She says harassment is rife in the movie industry.

"This disproportionately affects women and people of colour, this power dynamic, but absolutely [it's] across the industry. So I think what you're going to see is a wave of women coming forward," she said.

CNN's Brian Selter said the Academy hardly ever throws anyone out.

"It's normally a lifetime membership," he said.

Bill Cosby and Roman Polanski - who have both faced public sex scandals - are still members of the Academy. 

Mr Selter said Weinstein's dumping indicates the Hollywood community view him as "a persona non grata."
