Jeffrey Epstein, Harvey Weinstein And The Attempt To Buy New York Magazine

Jeffrey Epstein, Harvey Weinstein And The Attempt To Buy New York Magazine

In 2003, Jeffrey Epstein and Harvey Weinstein joined forces with a small group of high-powered figures, including Michael Wolff and Mortimer Zuckerman, in a bid to purchase New York Magazine. The group submitted a multimillion-dollar offer in hopes of seizing editorial control and rebranding themselves as major players in the media world. Although their bid ultimately failed—coming in second-lowest—the attempt reflected Epstein’s broader interest in media ownership and narrative control. Not long after, he partnered again with Zuckerman to invest millions into another venture, Radar magazine, which fizzled out after only a few issues.

What makes this story particularly disturbing is not the failure of the deal, but what it represented: two disgraced men with a history of predation trying to buy a platform that shapes public opinion. Epstein and Weinstein weren’t just looking for financial investment—they were seeking cultural legitimacy and a shield from scrutiny. The attempted acquisition of a reputable magazine was a calculated move to soften their images and possibly bury or spin the stories that could one day undo them. It’s a stark example of how the powerful use media not just to shape markets, but to rewrite their own sins.
