But the negative comments I heard second hand were directed towards […]

Despite all the talk about race and gender in the 2008 election, it’s ironic (though all too typical) that precious few media outlets have even reported the fact that two women of color are running on the first all-female presidential ticket in U.S. history, on the Green Party slate.

Hot off the heels of the extremely productive media commentary workshop that Catherine Orenstein and I co-facilitated at BlogHer (which ended yesterday morning), I went directly to the Tides Foundation’s Momentum 2008 conference, which is bringing together visionary progressive leaders in a broad swatch of sectors, to share their best thinking on what America’s deepest […]

Very, very quick hit: just found out that Rosa Clemente will be appearing on CSPAN’s “The Road to the White House” in just a few minutes (some time shortly after 7pm, EST), right after the end of the Bob Barr interview. Rosa accepted her nomination as Green Party Vice Presidential nominee last night in Chicago […]

The other day, I participated in a debate on San Francisco’s KPFA “The Morning Show” , a discussion about, among other things, how Hillary Clinton will participate in the campaign ahead, the role of media sexism up until now, differences between feminist who supported Clinton and feminists who supported Barack Obama, and more.

Friday, 2:30pm: I’ve been asked to liveblog from the MAGNET (Media Action Grassroots Network) booth at the National Conference on Media Reform (NCMR2008), where Betty Yu, who will be speaking on the feminist media justice panel tomorrow, is filming video interviews with media activists. We’ll be uploading some of Betty’s videos when she’s done, […]
