How to Make It in Media with Audie Cornish
b'As she pens her memoir, Kara\\u2019s been thinking about legacy, but on this episode we reflect on the legacy of another powerhouse reporter: Audie Cornish.\\xa0After hosting NPR\\u2019s flagship \\u201cAll Things Considered\\u201d for a decade, Audie Cornish took a risk and left for the greener pastures of CNN+ \\u2014 only to see that venture get unceremoniously squashed by CNN\\u2019s new CEO less than a month after it launched. Yet Cornish has made it work: launching a new podcast,\\xa0\\u201cThe Assignment\\u201d and providing on-air analysis (slash occasionally taking the anchor chair) at CNN. In a conversation taped live\\xa0at the On Air Fest, where Cornish was honored with the\\xa0the 2023 Audio Vanguard Award, she\\xa0talks about how she learned to ask for help as a young reporter covering Hurricane Katrina, what the media\\xa0industry has to pay attention to in order to outgrow its early naivete and why the \\u201cchaos\\u201d at CNN is healthy.\\xa0\\nQuestions?
