Episode 23 - NY Times Reporter Ben Shpigel

Inside ParaSport

We talk with Ben Shpigel, a sports reporter for the New York Times, whose articles about the PyeongChang Paralympic Games were some of the best (and only) coverage of the Paralympics in mainstream print media. He tells us what it was like to be perhaps the only American reporter on the ground in Korea, and how he and his editors choose the stories they run. Follow Ben on Instagram and Twitter: @benshpigel and check out some of his work. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/13/insider/the-loneliness-of-the-american-paralympics-reporter.html
