Feminist investigative reporting can help connect the dots to learn how money and power are blocking feminist (and ethical governance) goals. Today we learned more about the perspectives of leaders in the field on what’s at stake for women, how investigative reporting can help us counteract policies that are especially harmful for women, and how we can help. 

Speakers were: Katherine Spillar, Ms. magazine Executive Editor and Executive Vice President of the Feminist Majority and Feminist Majority Foundation. Carrie Levine, Research Director of the DC congressional watchdog group, CREW (Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington).
