Default Person of the Year: Silence Breakers
Time magazine has named "the Silence Breakers" - women who spoke out against sexual abuse and harassment - as its "Person of the Year".

The movement is most closely associated with the #MeToo hashtag which sprung up as allegations emerged against Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.

But Time says the hashtag is "part of the picture, but not all of it".

So, first place - people speaking out about sexual assault. 2nd place, person admitting sexual assault.

I think most people are just happy and proud that people who spoke out about sexual assault won over a sexual assaulter
