Summary
In this episode Jan and Antoinette respond directly to feedback from the Etterati. We answer questions about the language used to describe certain “regimes,” balance in journalism, why we talk about Gaza and whether we laugh too much about dark subject matters. Plus: what happens when journalists we’ve scrutinised reach out directly? As a media platform built on critiquing journalism and power, we ask how should we handle criticism of our own work? This is a candid conversation about accountability, truth and what drives us to do the work we do. Support Ette Media by becoming a subscriber here. Antoinette’s book Women Who Win is here.
