The New York Times changed the conversation in Hollywood when they broke the story on Harvey Weinstein’s alleged sexual misconduct, sparking the #MeToo movement which led to the #TimesUp campaign, ending the culture of silence.
The ad begins by repeating, “He said. She said,” highlighting how the victims of the reported sexual misconduct were vilified for standing in their truth. It ends with, “He said. She said. She said. She said. She said. She said. She said…”
It ends emphatically with: “The truth has power. The truth will not be threatened. The truth has a voice.”
