Media Consultant talks about Fake News, How the Media has changed, International News vs US and More
In this intriguing true story about abuses inside American television, Nita Wiggins details what happens off camera.
Nita began life with a belief in equal opportunity. She hoped to report on the Dallas Cowboys in a way no journalist had done before. Along the way, Nita interviewed the superstars of the 20th century, including Muhammad Ali, Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, and Jackie Joyner-Kersee.
In Civil Rights Baby, Wiggins lays bare the misdeeds of the people who run TV newsrooms. As the firings of broadcasting executives in 2017 and 2018 illustrate, life in American newsrooms has been private chambers of hell for many female broadcasters—including Nita—and, like Nita, the women are fighting back. She also explores how the Civil Rights Act, which passed 56 days after her birth, has succeeded and failed in her American life.
Nita Wiggins grew up in Augusta, Georgia, where she began sportswriting as a preteen. After a communications degree from Augusta College in 1986, she worked 21 years as a news and sports reporter for TV affiliates in Dallas, Seattle, and Memphis, among other cities. She earned the pre-eminent broadcasting award, the RTNDF Michele Clark Fellowship, in 1989, and shared in a regional Emmy for special-events coverage in 2001.
Nita currently teaches at L'Ecole Supérieure de Journalisme de Paris, a school from which she earned a European master's in 2010.
