Reporting Stories and Influencing People: 4- The Narrative

Continuing a series of conversations, Brooke Gladstone, host and managing editor of WNYC’s On the Media, talks about her new book, The Influencing Machine: Brooke Gladstone on the Media, a work of graphic nonfiction illustrated by Josh Neufeld, which explains the history and workings of the media. Today: the narrative bias when the story needs a beginning, middle and end.

The book launch is tonight, 5/23, at 7 p.m. at McNally Jackson at 52 Prince Street.
