The Coverage of Women & War

Samhita and I are at a panel on media coverage of women and war–it’s great stuff.
Lakshmi Chaudhry (who apparently is on all the cool panels) just spoke about the sometimes problematic way that the media fact checks their pieces. For example, considering the State Department a reasonable source or using previously cited stats just because they were previously cited.
Gloria Jacobs, Executive Director of The Feminist Press, is talking about a book she collaborated on–Women, War and Peace.
Cynthia Enloe (who I’ve said before is just awesome) is moderating. You’re jealous. Admit it.
