The songwriter and director of Lady Gaga's 'Til It Happens to You' video say there must be "zero tolerance" towards sexual assault. "Til It Happens to You" is a song written by Diane Warren and Lady Gaga recorded for The Hunting Ground, a documentary film about campus rape in the United States Diane Warren and Catherine Hardwicke, who also directed Twilight, have been speaking to 麻豆社 Radio 5 Live's Nihal about the music video which has been viewed millions of times online. Catherine says, "People just don't understand [about rape]. Even if they see the documentary, they say 'Oh she was drunk, oh she was asking for it'.'' Diane says, "No one even talked about rape a couple of years ago. And people still who have seen the documentary, other women, talk about other women who are victims and say 'Oh you're a liar' or 'Well you liked that football player, or they liked the guy that did it.' They don't want to believe it. This whole movement is about support for people that have gone through this and create this tipping point where there is zero tolerance." This clip is originally from Nihal on Friday 25th September 2015.
