“Revealing Truth: Investigative journalism now more than ever”
Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists, are best known for breaking the story of Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein and his decades of sexual abuse. Together, Kantor and Twohey wrote the 2019 book She Said, taking readers behind the scenes of their investigative work and showing the impact even a small number of truth-tellers can have.
More recently, Kantor has worked with her New York Times colleagues to pull back the curtain on the United States Supreme Court, revealing how the justices overturned the constitutional right to abortion. Her work has raised widespread public concern and renewed calls from lawmakers to address ethical standards at the Court. Her investigations into workplace environments have sparked changes including “lactation pods” for working mothers, new paternity leave policies and a national fair-scheduling movement.
Throughout her career, Twohey has concentrated on issues affecting women and children. Her notable work includes revealing stories in 2016 about women who accused Donald J. Trump of groping and other forms of sexual misconduct. Additionally, she exposed a perilous underground network where parents offloaded their unwanted adopted children to strangers online in a practice known as re-homing. Her series titled The Child Exchange, which highlighted the lack of government oversight in these transactions and the risks posed to children, was a finalist for the 2014 Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting. More recently, she has covered the Hollywood dispute between Blake Lively over what happened as they made and promoted It Ends with Us, and has taken readers inside the $32 billion marijuana industry.
