Panel Discussion: Media and Labor – A New Relationship or a Fleeting Moment?

What’s new in media coverage of labor? Is there a new attitude towards labor in mainstream media, and if so, how do we capitalize on this moment? What is the pandemic’s role in the recent coverage of labor? Is the public more sympathetic to union members since they held jobs deemed essential and helped us all deal with the pandemic.

Panelists:
Chelsea Connor, RWDSU, Communications Director
Kim Kelly, journalist, organizer, author of the recently published Fight Like Hell
Richard Steier, UFT, Communications Specialist, former editor of The Chief
Leanne Tory-Murphy, Workers United Communications Director, NY/NJ Joint Board
Moderated by Bill Fletcher, Jr.

FREE and open to the public. Registration is required.
