MEDIA INDIGENA 93
Added 2017-12-16 18:30:01 +0000 UTCIs political corruption covered differently when Indigenous people are involved? / MI 93
ON THIS WEEK'S ROUNDTABLE:
Vote vice: we scrutinize the story of a Saskatchewan First Nation politician accused of buying votes with drugs, and muse over how media framing of stories about Indigenous corruption compares to coverage of mainstream political shenanigans;
Harm reduction on the rez: we explore the promise of a new public health approach to drug addiction on a First Nation in northwestern Ontario;
'Hawks hoax: will an online prank about the name of Washington’s football team score with its intended audience?
Back at the table this week: Brock Pitawanakwat, assistant professor of Indigenous studies at the University of Sudbury, and Ken Williams, assistant professor with the University of Alberta’s department of drama.
LISTEN NOW:
PATRON-PALOOZA!
