OM DENNE EPISODE
In this week’s episode, Peter and Victor ask ‘What to do About… Media Representation’.
Whether entertainment media or the news, whose stories get told and who gets to tell them is a live question in British culture – who has the money and power to decide what parts of our society we get to see, and who doesn’t.
That’s a problem for all of us, because the less we understand, the easier it is to manipulate us, shaping our view of the world in a way that suits someone else.
Luckily, people like Rachel Wang and David Floyd have figured out ways to preserve and improve representation in their parts of the media – film, for Rachel. For David, local news – so that as many people as possible get to see the whole picture.
In this episode, they tell us how they do what they do, and why.
‘What to do About… Media Representation’ with Peter Holbrook & Lord Victor Adebowale.
