Welcome to ‘Episode Seven’ of The Baylor Line’s flagship podcast, The Green Room.
On this episode, host Jonathon Platt meets with Booking Producer at Bloomberg TV, Amanda Hayes Roark.
Just a few years into post-grad life, Amanda has already charted an impressive path through some of the top names in journalism. From her early start as a production assistant on “Morning Joe” to media booking at Politico, Amanda’s trajectory is nothing short of remarkable.
Jonathon and Amanda dive into the demanding, fast-paced world of media booking – the hustle behind the headlines, one might say – and what it’s like to coordinate high-stakes conversations with policymakers, analysts, and journalists.
