Last week, our colleagues Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey published a book documenting their investigation of Harvey Weinstein. In writing it, they discovered information about two feminist icons — Gloria Allred and her daughter, Lisa Bloom — that raises questions about their legacies and the legal system in which they’ve worked. Today, we look at the role of Ms. Bloom, a lawyer who represented Mr. Weinstein.
Guests: Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey, investigative reporters for The New York Times and the authors of “She Said: Breaking the Sexual Harassment Story That Helped Ignite a Movement (https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/08/books/review/she-said-jodi-kantor-megan-twohey.html?smid=pc-thedaily).” For more information on today’s episode, visit nytimes.com/thedaily (https://www.nytimes.com/thedaily).
