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.
