Women are influencing and shaping the media more than ever before, but men are still positioned to tell more of the stories and decide which (and whose) stories get told. Add to that fake news, online trolls, and the harassment that follows women across platforms, and it’s clear that the mediasphere is still a challenging place for women to engage. During this candid conversation with leading mediamakers and influencers, we’ll explore their experiences and discuss how women can leverage our rising media prowess and power to change the field.
