From a talk Wednesday at Harvard.
Fascinating talk underway with @nytmike and @emilysteel from @nytimes about how they’ve covered #SexualHarassment and bullying in the workplace–and what it takes to get the story right when powerful men are involved. Moderator: @AMLwhere. #MeToo pic.twitter.com/7tA6nqftME

Steele said she borrowed from lines in the movie to talk to her sources. Not sure these are the exact lines, but FYI.
NYTimes reporter interviewed former O’Reilly guests for sex harass story. Found some on IMDB. #metoo #journalists

.@nytmike speaking at @niemanfdn: We are under great scrutiny because of our reporting. There’s much more we need to do to explain what we do and what our role is. We have too better about it.
