ASSA 2020 AEA Workshop

How to Excel in Media Interviews -- A Workshop for Female Economists

Co-hosted by AEA and The Washington Post at the 2020 Annual Meeting in San Diego, CA.

What makes a great media interview? How do you prep for TV versus radio versus "print"? How do you pitch a reporter? How can you get your point across without too much jargon? Should you answer questions outside your research or field? Top journalists will share insider tips and conduct practice interviews to help female economists enhance their media skills.
