We do love a journalism movie.
It’s been five years since the NY Times exposé of Harvey Weinstein sparked the global #MeToo movement. And the new movie, “She Said,” documents the two-steps-forward, one-step-back work of investigative reporters Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor in uncovering the extent of Weinstein’s abuses.
“Pump it into my veins,” is how Katelyn describes the movie.
On this episode, Katelyn and Roxy discuss the new movie, the book it’s based on, and where we are now.
GUESTS:
- Christine Emba is an opinion columnist and editor for The Washington Post. She is the author of the new book Rethinking Sex: A Provocation.
- Alissa Wilkinson is a film, culture and food writer. She is the senior culture reporter at Vox.com, as well as an associate professor at The King’s College. She is the author of the new book “Salty: Lessons on eating, drinking and living from revolutionary women.”
