Journalists aren’t beholden to legal standards of due process, etc, but we are held to our own ethical standards of process. #metoo at #EIJ18

[Karen Hansen @hansenkarenm]

Telling someone who has come forward that their story will not be published is very difficult, but does not mean the end of the road. It’s always possible to reapproach later. - @AmyJBrittain #metoo at #EIJ18

[Laura Palumbo @LauraPalumb0]

@MattSchmittdiel Great question this morning! This may be helpful too: https://t.co/mz27XgKo2f

As reporters, we should do a lot more listening. There's such a rush to get the story, but sometimes you need to put down the notebook and listen and be a human being, says @AmyJBrittain. #EIJ18 #metoo #JournalismMatters

[Laura Palumbo @LauraPalumb0]

Covering sexual violence #metoo requires empathy & patience. @AmyJBrittain “There were times I didn’t even take out my notebook for hours. I just listened to women tell their stories.” #EIJ18

[Karen Hansen @hansenkarenm]

“Be a decent human being.” - @AmyJBrittain. Good rule on any story! Also, use extra sensitivity and empathy. Take a step back and LISTEN! #metoo at #EIJ18

[Karen Hansen @hansenkarenm]

Harassment is most prevalent in service industries, but workers in those sectors rely on their paychecks, are less likely to get news media support or afford s lawyer. #metoo at #EIJ18

[Stefanie Frith @stefaniefrith]

Women in low wage industries haven't received a lot of media coverage because there aren't big names like #HarveyWeinstein attached to the story, says @annanorthtweets from @voxdotcom. #metoo #EIJ18

[Laura Palumbo @LauraPalumb0]

👏👏👏

[Teghan Simonton @teghan_simonton]

We can't just report on the allegations. We need to report on the systems that have enabled this behavior for decades, said @AmyJBrittain on the #MeToo Movement. #EIJ18

[Laura Yuen @laura_yuen]

Women of color haven't gotten the same attention as white women who've endured sexual harassment. If you missed @TracyJan's excellent coverage on a Hollywood manager who was accused of harassing black actresses, please read: https://t.co/OgifsiE6CU #EIJ18 #MeToo
