The recent court case between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard centred around an opinion piece Heard wrote in 2018 for The Washington Post, titled: “I spoke up against sexual violence — and faced our culture’s wrath. But what did the original article – which remains online at The Washington Post – actually say? I knew that men have the power – physically, socially and financially – and that a lot of institutions support that arrangement,” wrote Heard. In the Washington Post piece, Heard claimed that friends had told her that taking on such a public position meant she wouldn’t work again as an actor and that she would be blacklisted.
