At the Coalface
At the Coalface is a series of conversations hosted by Philippe Rose.
Philippe's guests share stories about their life beyond the headlines of international affairs. They look for lessons learned about making an impact in the world as practitioners in diplomacy, international organisations, NGOs, journalism and the private sector.
Many of Philippe's guests are connected by their common experience of taking time away from work to attend Fletcher School's Global Master of Arts Programme.

Christa Case Bryant - 'Just be fair': A journalist's path covering polarising issues
In this episode, I speak with Christa Case Bryant about her fascinating journalistic career. She’s reported on US politics and domestic heartland issues. She’s also worked as Middle East editor, and been based in Jerusalem as bureau chief. And she’s now Senior Congressional correspondent. Her diverse experience gives her stories both a global lens and a very human perspective. We speak about maintaining fairness and impartiality when covering deeply divisive issues, dealing with our biases and how to cover stories that don’t neatly fit in a polarized set of narratives.
Recorded on 2 January 2023.
