“My reaction at first was a little…defensive,” Arnold said in the docu-series. “Today I can look at it and say: it really doesn’t matter what time it is. Whether it’s the Muscle Beach days of 40 years ago, or today, this was wrong. It was nonsense. Forget all the excuses, it was wrong.”

Arnold eventually won the election, with Los Angeles Times Reporter Carla Hall added in the docuseries that she was “surprised” the news didn’t have a bigger impact. “I thought more people would be offended,” she recalled.

“When Schwarzenegger announced he would run for governor, the staff of the Los Angeles Times “We immediately got to work to start investigating stories that we had heard for years, but that no one had investigated in depth,” he continued. “We barely had six weeks to work on this and we started talking to women.”
