I can’t believe they asked that! Questions we get from the media.

In this episode of The Elijah Rising Podcast, Sam and David talk about interactions with the media regarding human trafficking. Human trafficking is something that continues to be sensationalized in the media, but is it painting an honest picture of what human trafficking actually looks like? We also ask the question of how can journalists help move the anti-trafficking movement forward through honest reporting?
