On Thursday, February 28, 3:30 PM, in the Hirsh Reading Room, Sarah Sobieraj will discuss her book, Soundbitten: The Perils of Media Centered Political Activism, which illuminates the relationship between news and activist organizations, and shows that media-centrism is not only ineffective, but also toxic to group life.
