On the episode of the en(gender)ed podcast, our guest is Jenna Spinelle, one of the hosts of the Democracy Works Podcast, produced by the McCourtney Institute for Democracy at Penn State University. Democracy Works is part of The Democracy Group, a network of podcasts that examines what’s broken in our democracy and how we can work together to fix it.
We speak to Jenna today about how the media and democracy have been impacted by COVID-19, why it’s important to support a free press now more than ever, and what Democracy Works Podcast and the network is doing to help spread credible information and get to the root of the infodemic.
