Today, Harvey Weinstein was found guilty of felony sex crime and rape in the third degree. This is how two female journalists first exposed his crimes.

“They attacked our reporting and attacked us as individuals.”

Kantor, a New York City native, says her Jewish heritage imbued in her a need to stand up for “profound injustice” from the start. “I grew up around people with numbers on their arms—my grandparents are Holocaust survivors,” she says. “It led me to think about the big questions we often ask in investigative journalism: ‘How could something like this have gone on? What allowed this to happen?’”That's initially what she thought she was getting with Weinstein—a look into his past.

They tracked down other internal company records and settlements that had been paid out. “We went in saying, ‘Is this a repeat situation? Is this a serial situation?’” says Kantor. “Some people in the industry knew he had a reputation, but the magic of reporting is that we can put those puzzle pieces together. When we realized the scope of this story, it was like, ‘Oh man, this has been going on for years to a lot of women.

The reporters are careful to protect exactly how and when they talked to sources like Judd, but they do divulge that they reached out to many actresses directly as opposed to using the traditional avenue of agents or reps. Much of their reporting was figuring out how to get access to the direct emails, phone numbers, and addresses of stars."You're never as many degrees removed from someone as you think," says Kantor.
