Harvey Weinstein, the Hollywood producer accused of sexual harassment and assault by several women, has been banned for life from the Television Academy because of “widespread examples of this horrific behavior.”

The organization, which awards the Primetime Emmys, voted Monday to oust Mr. Weinstein, Variety reported.

“The Academy supports those speaking out against harassment in all forms and stands behind those who have been affected by this issue,” the organization said in a statement to Variety. “The unfolding and widespread examples of this horrific behavior are deeply disturbing to the Academy’s leadership.”

Investigations by The New York Times and The New Yorker have revealed accusations of sexual harassment, assault and rape from women going back decades. Mr. Weinstein said his behavior “has caused a lot of pain.” A representative for Mr. Weinstein has said he denies allegations of “nonconsensual sex.”
