Anecdotes and Abstractions in Journalism

May 16, 2018

In this episode, we talk with public radio personality Marco Werman about his experience as host of Public Radio International’s The World and about his career in journalism (in conjunction with his reflective keynote address for the annual Switchpoint gathering on global health). We present a wide-ranging set of selections from our conversation that explore the roles of academic research in journalism and Marco’s thoughts about current and future possibilities for public radio as a forum.
