The American #journalist Francesca Fiorentini built a formidable career in activist media. She started off working for the pacifist organization the ​​War Resisters League and the liberal magazine Left Turn, later moving on to producing Newsbroke on AJ+, the media owned by Arabic broadcaster Al Jazeera. Billed as the first comedy show on the chanel, it wasn’t exactly ha-ha-type comedy all the time: Francesca and her guests covered such unfunny topics as the war in Afghanistan, discrimination, and gun control. In 2018, Newsbroke got an Emmy nomination in the Outstanding Short Form Variety Series category. After the show ended, Francesca continued writing for different media outlets (mostly for National Geographic) and started doing stand-up. Some of her performances at San Francisco Sketchfest went viral. Not surprisingly, Francesca is also involved in podcasting. In addition to her own podcast, “The Bitchuation Room,” she is a regular guest on other shows. Listen to Francesca sharing her thoughts on society, politics, and of course, comedy on Padverb
