Fired Washington Post columnist Karen Attiah on free speech

Our guest on this Centre Stage episode is journalist Karen Attiah.

Attiah was fired from her position as editor of Global Opinions in September for one of her social media posts. Following the murder of American right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk, it was written in response.

The Washington Post’s former editor, Attiah, has opposed the decision and criticized it as unfair.

She explains why she lost her job, how she was terminated, and why she believes the current political climate should concern everyone.
