    IRE Radio: Supporting journalists with disabilities

    More than 1 in 4 adults in the U.S. reported having a disability in 2022, yet people with disabilities have long been underrepresented in news coverage and in newsrooms. To explore this topic — and related concerns facing the news industry — IRE’s 2024 AccessFest Conference featured a panel titled, “Supporting journalists with disabilities and improving disability coverage.”  In this episode of IRE Radio, you will hear excerpts from the panel featuring:  • Pauline Arrillaga, executive director of the National Center on Disability and Journalism at ASU and former writer and editor for AP News • Samantha Hernandez, an education reporter at the Des Moines Register  • Denise-Marie Ordway, managing editor for The Journalist's Resource at Harvard University • Wendy Lu, a senior staff editor at The New York Times and a global speaker on disability representation in the media Ordway also contributed an essay based on the panel to the Q4 2024 edition of The IRE Journal.

    Disability is part of every beat

    Although there has been a move to diversify journalism from the stories we tell to the people we interview, the sad reality is that not enough journalists prioritize disability coverage. As part of IRE’s virtual AccessFest conference in 2024, a group of distinguished disabled journalists discussed how to cover topics like climate change, mass incarceration, and poverty through the lens of disability. In a panel titled, “Disability is part of every beat,” three accomplished journalists joined in discussion. We have excerpted from their panel in this edition of The IRE Radio Podcast. The panelists are Jen Deerinwater, founding executive director of Crushing Colonialism; Lygia Navarro, award-winning disabled freelance journalist and editor for NAHJ’s multimedia platform, palabra; and Cara Reedy, former CNN documentarian and founder and director of the Disabled Journalists Association. IRE Radio is distributed across several podcast platforms, including Apple, Spotify and Amazon Podcasts.
