The "Cathy Newman" meme gained popularity in early 2018 following a widely publicized interview between Channel 4 News presenter Cathy Newman and Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson. During the interview, Newman frequently rephrased Peterson's statements with the phrase "So, you're saying...", often misinterpreting his arguments. This led to the creation of the meme, where people humorously exaggerated or invented such paraphrasing to highlight perceived misunderstandings or to parody debates. The meme became emblematic of communication breakdowns, particularly in complex discussions, and sparked broader conversations about media representation, gender dynamics, and freedom of speech in public discourse.
