The Fold

Ali Mau on #MeTooNZ, talkback radio and the New Zealand music industry's reckoning

In this edition of The Spinoff’s media podcast The Fold, Duncan Greive is joined by Ali Mau, Stuff senior journalist and creator of New Zealand's own MeToo movement.


In 2017, the MeToo movement brought some of Hollywood's elite crashing down under allegations of serious sexual abuse and misconduct. One year later, journalist Ali Mau brought the movement to New Zealand when she launched #MeTooNZ with a team at Stuff. 


Her goal was to bring to light stories of misconduct and abuse within our own borders, and in the three years since she's reported these stories from victims in many industries, from fast food to academia.


In this episode of The Fold, Ali Mau joins Duncan Greive to explain how her career has led her to the point she's at now, defend talkback radio, and praise the bravery of those who allow her to tell their stories.
