She Said de Jodi Kantor

She Said

Autor Jodi Kantor, Megan Twohey
en Limba Engleză Paperback – iul 2020

Imaginați-vă o lume în care cel mai influent om de la Hollywood este, în același timp, cel mai bine păzit secret al industriei. Paradoxul central al cărții She Said constă în această dualitate: cum a reușit Harvey Weinstein să își mențină aura de putere absolută timp de decenii, în timp ce zvonurile despre comportamentul său erau o monedă de schimb comună pe platourile de filmare? Jodi Kantor și Megan Twohey ne transportă în redacția New York Times în momentul în care tăcerea începe să se fisureze. Descoperim aici un proces de investigație laborios, marcat de telefoane date la miezul nopții și întâlniri clandestine cu actrițe celebre și foste angajate, toate legate prin contracte de confidențialitate drastice. Putem afirma că acest volum nu este doar o cronică a unui scandal, ci o analiză a sistemelor care protejează abuzul. Ritmul este cel al unui roman polițist de cea mai înaltă clasă, deși fiecare cuvânt este ancorat în realitate. Cartea se așază pe același raft cu Catch and Kill de Ronan Farrow, dar cu un accent specific pe mecanismele jurnalismului de investigație colectiv și pe transformarea mărturiilor individuale într-o forță socială de neoprit. Spre deosebire de Obamas, unde Kantor analiza puterea politică la cel mai înalt nivel, în She Said ea explorează modul în care adevărul poate demonta structurile de putere corupte din interiorul culturii noastre de consum.

Descriere scurtă

Named one of the Top Ten Works of Journalism of the Decade by New York UniversityThe instant New York Times bestsellerAn instant classic of investigative journalism...'All the President's Men' for the Me Too era. -- Carlos Lozada, The Washington PostSoon to be a major motion picture.From Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey, the untold story of their investigation of Harvey Weinstein and its consequences for the #MeToo movement For years, reporters had tried to get to the truth about Harvey Weinstein's treatment of women. Rumors of wrongdoing had long circulated, and in 2017, when Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey began their investigation for the New York Times, his name was still synonymous with power. But during months of confidential interviews with actresses, former Weinstein employees, and other sources, many disturbing and long-buried allegations were unearthed, and a web of onerous secret payouts and nondisclosure agreements was revealed. When Kantor and Twohey were finally able to convince sources to go on the record, a dramatic final showdown between Weinstein and the New York Times was set in motion. In the tradition of great investigative journalism, She Said tells a thrilling story about the power of truth and reveals the inspiring and affecting journeys of the women who spoke up--for the sake of other women, for future generations, and for themselves.

A FINANCIAL TIMES, NEW STATESMAN, DAILY TELEGRAPH, METRO AND ELLE BOOK OF THE YEAR

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. Three years later, it helped lead to his conviction.

This is how they did it.

Recenzii

Seismic. Examines what happens when a bully is cornered
A binge-read of a book, propelled by a clear, adrenaline-spiking tick-tock
The narrative speeds towards the moment when the story that Weinstein can't stop detonates with shattering force . . . Feels like a Hollywood film in the making
She Said is a fascinating tale of investigative journalism in action, the ultimate story-behind-the-story filled with so many twists and obstacles that it often reads like a Hollywood screenplay
Cinematic, remarkable . . . A much deeper story than the one that seized headlines
She Said is not a lurid celebrity exposé, nor even a dark farce, but a cool, just-the-facts-ma'am account of how Kantor and Twohey uncovered the horror story that ignited the MeToo movement
Seamless and suspenseful . . . A gripping blow-by-blow
Has the morally satisfying arc of a thriller, with all the suspense, a clear dynamic of right and wrong, and partial justice at the end
The groundbreaking new book that tells the true story of the Harvey Weinstein scandal. With plenty of unknown material and new discoveries, She Said serves as a testament to the importance of journalism and how facts can drive social change in an age of fake news
Captivating. The cumulative effect is almost cinematic, a sort of All the President's Men for the #MeToo era, except the men are women, and they don't protect the boss, they take him down
She Said is first and foremost an account of incredible reporting. Kantor and Twohey show the background research they ran on sources, to protect both them and the paper, the careful way they documented and substantiated information, and their extraordinary precision in acquiring proof. We know how the story ends, but She Said is nonetheless deeply suspenseful, a kind of less swaggering All the President's Men
Painstakingly researched, their account is less interested in Weinstein the monster than the structures that enabled him to flourish. A hymn to old-fashioned investigative reporting
It reads like a thriller. It's incredible the work they've done. It staggered me. I could talk all day about this book. It's about so much more than Harvey Weinstein
For decades Hollywood has whispered about Harvey Weinstein. Journalists sniffed around, but none ever could - or, perhaps, would - bring one of the industry's darkest and longest-kept secrets to light. Until Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey delivered a chilling exposé ... It sent shockwaves
It's not often that you can pinpoint the beginning of such a momentous cultural shift, but in this case you can draw a pretty clear line to the stories by Meghan Twohey and Jodi Kantor
A compelling account of serious investigative journalism. Riveting
What an inspiring and gripping story. I could not put it down
I hope this book will go a long way to exonerating me and the other victims who've dealt with slander and mental assault for years now
I can't put it down. The ins and outs of how they broke this story are riveting and the respect they show for their sources is beautiful
Superb reporting. Unputdownable non-fiction. A powerful book
For years, the showbiz world has asked why Gwyneth Paltrow stayed silent about the man who helped her win as Oscar - but once made advances to her. Now, a new book reveals the extraordinary truth. She Said sheds a revealing light on the closest and most successful producer-actor partnership for decades
An explosive new book chronicling the downfall of Harvey Weinstein. Since the release of She Said, Weinstein's lawyers have hit back, and he has denied all previous allegations. One thing is clear, though: thanks to a thorough investigation, Weinstein's victims will no longer be silenced
Can a book feel important AND be a page-turner? Yes! This one! What a read. Edge of my seat plus I feel smarter about investigative journalism at its finest
