Summary

On October 5, 2017, the New York Times published an article by Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey that helped change the world. For months Kantor and Twohey had been having confidential discussions with top actresses, former Weinstein employees and other sources, learning of disturbing, long-buried allegations. The journalists meticulously picked their way through a web of decades-old secret payouts and nondisclosure agreements, pressed some of the most famous women in the world - and some unknown ones - to risk going on the record, and faced down Weinstein, his team of high-priced defenders and even his private investigators.

In She Said, Kantor and Twohey relive in real time what it took to break the story and give an up-close portrait of the forces they were up against. They describe the experiences of the women who spoke up - for the sake of other women, for future generations and for themselves. Their stories have never been told in this way before.

I have loved this book. I have been in tears. Incensed, cheering along the people and asking myself as woman what do I need to do to stop harassment taking place where I work and shop and gather. The courage of the victim/survivors and journalists is a powerful movement.

Understanding the process of how this came to light is so vital to the plight of those impacted by the non-consensual and horrific behaviour of others. Thank you to everyone involved in bringing this out into the public domain and I hope there is some peace for all that have been affected.

Essential listening

Enjoyed this just as much as Catch and Kill by Ronan Farrow which covers similar territory, the investigations and courageous disclosures of former Miramax staff and actors that led to the arrest of Harvey Weinstein and the #MeToo movement.
Stunningly important work by these journalists, the Pulitzer prize was well deserved.
A riveting read, gripping and thorough.
