Episode 3: Representation in the Newsroom
In this episode of "Roundtables on Race," host the Rev. Kathy Walker discusses representation in the newsroom and the difference it makes in reporting. She is joined by two guests whose careers in the news have ranged from the local to the national. Bervette Carree is the news director at ABC11-WTVD in Raleigh/Durham, North Carolina. Her nearly 20-year career has included time as an executive producer at NBC and CBS affiliates as well as lead producer at CNN and HLN in Atlanta. Adrian Walker is an associate editor and columnist at the Boston Globe, whose 30-year career includes being an integral part of the Globe’s 2017 Pulitzer-finalist team and their series on race in the Boston area. (And if you noticed a similarity in name with our host, yes, there is a relation – Kathy and Adrian are siblings!)
