Are female journalists to blame? Britt's...

BRITTANY HOCKLEY AND LAURA BYRNE
About this episode

Hey Lifers!

Britt has learnt a very good lesson about double glazed glass and not so private beaches.
She’s gearing up to get *legally married this week and has asked Laura and Keeshia to be a part of it.
What did you do with your wedding certificate? Are you framing and hanging it up? How about your degree?

A survey has revealed that most people are thinking about their ex when they’re getting off. We did our own *research into this and it turns out more of you are than we expected! Have you ever said an ex’s name during sex? 

Do you think female entertainment journalists have a greater responsibility to report fairly on women in the media? Are gossipy, bitchy pieces written by women a betrayal to their own gender?  

British actress and activist Jameela Jamil announced via her Substack that she will no longer be interviewed by women. This came after a particularly critical profile in The Times, and she’s said that of the “hundreds of women” who have interviewed her over her 17-year career, only three have written about her fairly.

We unpack whether we think female journalists are to blame, what the trade off of a profile piece is and the grey areas of standing on your morals.
We also discuss the specific tactics that some media use to manipulate your opinion about someone. Some of them are more obvious than others.

If you’d like to read the pieces we discuss,

Jameela’s substack I think I'm done with being interviewed by women.
