    So how is Haley Williams related to this? Is it because she used to be a Christian?

    CCM stands for contemporary Christian music. The vocalist for newsboys (a ccm band) sexually assaulted younger men and confirmed the allegations. Apparently others in the CCM knew about what had been going on over a large amount of time and Hayley called them out for it.
