Roundtable on Women and the Media set for Chicago

I’d like to commend the following report to you. RCC benefited from an engaging report on the progress of the Global Media Monitoring Project that opened our national convention in Little Rock, Arkansas last spring. Dr. Sarah Macharia was our presenter. Manya Brachear served as the host for the Wilbur Awards, RCC’s honoring of secular media, at the 2010 Religion Communicators Congress meeting. Debra Mason, one of the organizers of the Chicago roundtable and Executive Director of Religion Newswriters, will be a keynote speaker at RCC’s 2012 convention in Philadelphia, April 12-14. RCC members hold a genuine interest in realities of the way gender is handled by the media worldwide.
