SIM Ep 301 Chops 134: She Said with Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey

Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey are the two Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporters that broke the Harvey Weinstein story back in October 2017. It kickstarted the #MeToo movement, which continues to this day. Their new book, She Said, is a powerful page-turner that tells the story behind the breaking of the story – and what happened next for some of the women involved in the allegations against Weinstein, as well as other powerful men. Mick caught up with them to chat investigative journalism, Weinstein intimidation, loopholes, turncoats, brave-ass women, and where Me Too goes from here.
