Episode 77—Call and Response
from Print Run Podcast Hosted by Erik Hane and Laura Zats
On the heels of recent publishing news as well as the response to NYT’s hiring of Sarah Jeong, this week’s show focuses on a phenomenon that is only going to get more common: bad-faith mobs appealing to power in an attempt to have writers or artists fired. We talk about how publishers and magazines should be prepared to respond to this sort of pernicious internet campaign, and how developing those responses is going to be key in the effort to publish essential voices in the modern age. Also included: a discussion of new contest judging protocols, and a look at one of Jeong’s most recent pieces, on romance writers and the Amazon algorithm.
