Paris court rules that woman who launched French version of MeToo movement must pay $22,000 for defaming man she accused of harassment.
A Paris court ruled on Wednesday that the woman who launched the French version of the #MeToo movement must pay 20,000 euros for defaming the man she accused of harassment.Muller launched #balancetonporc, which roughly translates as"squeal on your pig,"at the height of the global movement against sexual misconduct in October 2017 when she tweeted that former TV channel executive Eric Brion made sexually explicit comments to her.
Brion, former head of television channel Equidia, took Muller to court over the tweets, arguing that they harmed him and that his remarks to Muller were not harassment. The court ruled in his favor, ordered Muller to delete her tweets and to pay Brion 15,000 euros in damages and 5,000 euros more in legal fees.
France has struggled to define the line between flirting and harassment in the wake of the #MeToo movement.
