Recently many individuals have gone public with their stories of working in a subculture of misogyny within journalism. Some experienced pressure and harassment from colleagues and management while others have encountered harassment while covering stories or even backlash after their pieces were published. For every individual who went public, there are many who haven’t, fearing retaliation, judgment and termination.
Inspired by their stories, the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism presents a panel discussion on sexual harassment in journalism, moderated by Associate Professor Lisa Armstrong.
Panelists include:
Bijoyeta Das, Journalist and CUNY-J adjunct professor
Cindy Galli, ABC News Investigative Reporter
Amanda Hess, New York Times David Carr Fellow
Tamika Payne, Advisor on gender-based violence and the protection and empowerment of women and girls
Gillian Thomas, ACLU Senior Staff Attorney, Women’s Rights Project
Alanna Vagianos, Women’s Editor at HuffPost
Sarah Wildman, journalist and author
Space is limited, please RSVP no later than Friday, November 24th.
