Foreign Policy Interrupted

The organization Foreign Policy Interrupted (FPI) was launched in 2014 to address the disparity between female and male foreign policy expert representation in the media.

In collaboration with Media Matters for America, FPI conducted an analysis of foreign policy guests on major news programs.

In 2014, 22 percent of guests were women, and trained female foreign policy experts received less coverage than that.

FPI is led by co-founders Elmira Bayrasli and Lauren Bohn.
