Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey are the New York Times reporters who broke the Harvey Weinstein story.&nbsp;For five months -- perpetually in danger of losing the scoop -- they cultivated and cajoled sources ranging from the Weinsteins&rsquo; accountant to Ashley Judd.&nbsp;The article that emerged on October 5th, 2017, was a level-headed and impeccably sourced expos&eacute;, whose effects continue to be felt around the world.&nbsp;Their conversation with Alec covers their reporting process, and moves on to a joint wrestling with Alec&rsquo;s own early knowledge of one of the Weinstein allegations, and his ongoing friendship with accused harasser James Toback.&nbsp;The guests ask Alec questions about&nbsp;the movie industry&rsquo;s ethics about sex and &ldquo;the casting couch.&rdquo;&nbsp;Over a respectful and surprising half-hour, host and guests together talk through the many dilemmas posed by the #MeToo movement that Kantor and Twohey did so much to unleash.
