In a job interview with NPR Friday, Ronan Farrow reiterated the assertion he makes in a brand new guide, Catch and Kill, that NBC Information leadership worked to kill the reporting that eventually broke available Harvey Weinstein’s so-called reputation for intimate assault — and that it’s associated with a wider pattern of networkwide harassment and punishment.
Within the guide, Farrow casts NBC Information President Noah Oppenheim in an especially dark light as an integral administrator who he says attempted to stifle Farrow’s tale as a result of close ties between NBC Information professionals and Weinstein — a cohort whose actions, he contends, fueled a pervasive tradition of sexism and journalism that is unethical.
