The Channel 4 News presenter Cathy Newman has said she was sexually harassed by teenage boys when she was a scholarship student at one of the UK’s top private schools. The broadcaster said one school boy unzipped his flies, grabbed her hand and forced her to touch his penis. Newman said she had decided to speak out about her experience at the school following the #MeToo movement and in a bid to try to encourage girls to report bullying and harassment. There’s the royalty and the mega-rich [at the school]; I was a master’s daughter,” she said. Newman is one of several high-profile names speaking before the launch of a campaign tomorrow by the anti-bullying charity The Diana Award.
