British News Media Squash Major Investigation into Prominent Journalist's Sexual Misconduct

Seven women accused Nick Cohen, a columnist at The Guardian and The Financial Times, of sexual harassment and misconduct over nearly 20 years.
Madison Marriage, an investigative reporter at the Financial Times, uncovered evidence of Cohen's misconduct but her editor killed the story.
The Guardian previously signed a confidential agreement with Cohen and paid him a large settlement after he left the paper.
The British news media has largely avoided reckoning with sexual misconduct in its own ranks, unlike leading American newsrooms.
The Financial Times claimed Cohen did not have a big enough profile to warrant investigating, despite its stated commitment to exposing wrongdoing
