Award-winning actress Meryl Streep has been the target of a poster campaign in Hollywood aimed at shaming her for the accusation that she kept Harvey Weinstein's alleged sexual misconduct under wraps.

At least two posters with Streep and Weinstein and the words "she knew" covering the award-winning actress' eyes appeared on Tuesday across the street from the L.A. headquarters of the talent union that represents Streep, TMZ reported.

Deadline Hollywood shared a picture of the poster on Twitter.

The campaign comes shortly after Weinstein accuser Rose McGowan criticized Streep, among other actresses planning to wear black to the Golden Globe awards to protest gender inequality, for knowing about the movie mogul's alleged sexual misconduct but not doing anything about it.

"Actresses, like Meryl Streep, who happily worked for The Pig Monster are wearing black at the Golden Globes in a silent protest," McGowan posted on Twitter and later deleted. "YOUR SILENCE is THE problem [sic]."

Streep said she was not aware of Weinstein's pattern of harassment and alleged sexual abuse before the mass amount of recent allegations came out against him.
