書籍簡介
普利策獎得主突破萬難,揭露好萊塢性騷擾醜聞
然而#Me too運動下,藏着什麼樣的艱辛故事?
好萊塢製作人哈維·韋恩斯坦因監製《黑色追緝令》和《性、謊言、錄影帶》等電影而享負盛名,更曾一舉奪得奧斯卡獎,在業界可以説是如日中天,然而他之所以出名,還不僅止於此而已,他對女性的性騷擾惡習更是惡名昭彰。
多年來,記者們一直想將温斯坦的惡行公諸於世,然而,韋恩斯坦的勢力實在過於龐大,難以深入調查,就算到了2017年,為《紐約時報》工作的記者喬迪·坎托爾和梅根·吐赫對於韋恩斯坦的調查仍舊滯礙難行。
但坎托爾與吐赫並沒有輕易放棄,她們花費了數個月訪問知名女演員、韋恩斯坦前員工及其他消息來源,在保證這些受訪者不會曝光的情況下,才終於揭發韋恩斯坦的惡行,不管是塵封已久的指控、數以萬計不知名的款項以及不公開的祕密協定,終於通通攤在陽光底下。
可想而知,韋恩斯坦不會輕易就犯,他僱用了*律師團隊、私家偵探等相關專業人士,就為了阻撓調查進行。最後,坎托爾與吐赫終於成功説服部分受訪者露面,以將韋恩斯坦繩之以法,而這也讓韋恩斯坦和《紐約時報》的關係進入白熱化的階段。
2017年10月5日,坎托爾與吐赫將韋恩斯坦的惡行公諸於世,這簡直像打開了潘朵拉的盒子,全球的女性開始正視她們曾經受過的傷,不再隱忍,越來越多的性騷擾及職權罷凌的事件被爆出來,而接下來的一年,超過百位、各行各業的男性被爆出對他人性騷擾而身陷調查,如被提名為美國最高法院大法官佈雷特·卡瓦諾,即被帕羅奧圖大學教授克里斯汀·布萊西·福特指控曾在多年前性侵福特。然而,卡瓦諾最後被判無罪,福特則承受了各方壓力,這讓我們不禁自問:#Me too運動是否過激,或是還沒激起足夠的警示?
如其他傑出報導文學作品,本書揭發出許多駭人真相的同時,讓我們看見這些真相潛藏着足以喚醒世界的力量,這不僅是一本關於#Me too運動的書,還是所有女性鼓起勇氣為自己、為別人、為下個世代發聲的故事。

On 5 October 2017, the New York Times published an article by Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey that helped change the world.
Hollywood was talking as never before. Kantor and Twohey outmanoeuvred Harvey Weinstein, his team of defenders and private investigators, convincing some of the most famous women in the world – and some unknown ones – to go on the record.
This is how they did it.
___________________________
For months ahead of the story breaking, 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 non-disclosure 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.
