Andy Mills on being MeToo’d, The Witch Trials of JK Rowling, and Taylor Swift

I spoke with award winning journalist, Andy Mills, about getting caught in the Me Too crossfire, JK Rowling, his love for Taylor Swift and more!

Andy Mills was a successful, award-winning journalist and podcast producer at the New York Times when an accusation of “abuse” forced him to resign. His illustrious and well-deserved career was taken from him in a moment over minor past infractions. Andy recovered, of course, and is forging forward in journalism, but the experience impacted him deeply.

Andy is now a host of Reflector, co-creator of The Witch Trials of JK Rowling, and a Taylor Swift fan. We spoke about what journalism needs, what “bigotry” really means, what being cancelled feels like, why he loves scary movies, and more.
