More than 400 high-profile executives and employees from across the professional spectrum have been brought down by the #MeToo movement in the last 18 months, Bloomberg reports.
The big picture: While #MeToo isn't dominating headlines the way it was last year, the movement has still been at work behind the scenes. Davia Temin, whose firm Temin & Co. conducted the study cited by Bloomberg, said that while the accusation rate "has been slowing ... the percentage of people being fired has increased."
410 of the 417 high-profile figures are men. (The study defines "high-profile" as those "with at least seven separate, national mentions," including celebrities like Bill Cosby, or more common, CEOs and business leaders.)
193 of them have been fired or left their jobs.
122 have been suspended, put on leave, or are being investigated.
Around 69 haven't faced repercussions.
8 were in consensual relationships.
"The eagle eyes are out for this. Women understand a little better their collective power, and they're using it."
— Temin, to Bloomberg
What's next: The #MeToo movement is far from over.
