Don't miss episode #2 of Season 5 of Revise and Resubmit as we catch up with Dr. Kaitlin Miller, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Journalism and Creative Media in the College of Communication and Information Sciences at the University of Alabama. Learn more about how 6th grade Kaitlin had a big dream of working in broadcast journalism and how that dream became a reality for her after finishing her master's degree in broadcast journalism. Kaitlin tells us about her time working as a broadcast journalist in Bozeman, Montana where she essentially was a one-stop shop for all of the stories she worked on--setting up the camera, the lights, the audio, doing the reporting, doing the editing and packaging it all together. But, then she tells us about how the workplace for her and other women in the felt was challenging, isolating, and at times, filled with harassment. Her professional experiences tie directly into what she does now as a professor of journalism and guide much of the research she does on journalistic practices, the intersectionality of oppression and identity specific to gender and race, but how she firmly believes that journalism matters. We talk about her approach to teaching her own journalism students and how she inspires them (our words not hers) to follow their dreams and passions as storytellers. And, throughout today's conversation we hear so many funny stories about her professional work in broadcast journalism. Let's just say a bear enters this conversation! You don't want to miss today's episode as we catch up with Dr. Kaitlin Miller!
