At the very end of the talk, I mistakenly said I saw the video I show in 2007, when I was a student in London. I meant to say it was in 1987. I guess I was more nervous than I realized!

Comment raconter les histoires des femmes ? Demandez aux femmes de les raconter. A TEDxABQ, Megan Kamerick nous montre comment les informations sous-représentent les femmes en tant que journalistes et sources d'informations, et pour cette raison, ne racontent que des histoires incomplètes.

Including more women in newsrooms and leadership leads to richer, more representative journalism.
