Cronkite Must See Mondays

Kristin Gilger, senior associate dean, and Julia Wallace, Frank Russell Chair in the Business of Journalism, discuss their new book, “There’s No Crying in Newsrooms: What Women Have Learned about What It Takes to Lead.” The book chronicles the rise of women in America’s newsrooms and offers lessons about what it takes to lead in a traditionally male-dominated industry that has been rocked by the #MeToo movement. They discuss how much – and how little – has changed for women in newsrooms. The discussion is moderated by Lauren Gilger, host, “The Show,” KJZZ radio.

Assistant Professors Monica Chadha, Syed Ali Hussain, K. Hazel Kwon and Sada Reed examine the latest journalism and communications research and its impact on the profession with moderator Marianne Barrett, the Louise Solheim Professor.

Sarah Spain, ESPN writer, radio host and TV personality, talks about the growth of women in sports media with moderator Paola Boivin, digital director of the Cronkite News Phoenix Sports Bureau.
