Quinn and Tannen on Female Communication
WaPo‘s Sally Quinn and author and Georgetown University Linguistics Professor Deborah Tannen will be the panel on Sept. 23 for an event highlighting how women communicate at a downtown D.C. hotel. Tickets are $45. Don’t hold this queasy phrasing against Bisnow, whose hosting the event, but they’re billing it as the “best schmooze around before and after” the event.
Getting over that hurdle, is Quinn really an expert communicator?
One reader raised an eyebrow at the panel selection of WaPo‘s Sally Quinn, noting that “how Sally communicates” has been a “popular topic in certain journo circles over the years.”
In late February, after writing about her weird personal family wedding controversy, WaPo yanked Quinn’s “Party” column and positioned her back online to write “On Faith.”
