โItโs about timeโ: Women to lead White House coverage for four major news networks
Four major networks, ABC, CBS, CNN and NBC, have newly-appointed women as their White House correspondents. Kaitlan Collins and Nancy Cordes will be covering the White House for CNN and CBS respectively. โIf weโre going to survive as an industry, we need to respond to the needs of our audience,โ Hernandez said. That means telling stories from the perspective of journalists of color, particularly Hispanics.โHernandez said although itโs great to see women in charge of storytelling, she hopes to see more women, especially women of color, rising to higher positions of power within major news networks. โI hope that these are long-term commitments.โAccording to the latest census, 50.8% of the U.S. population are women.
