IP Democracy: No Pink Collars in Podcasting

This Wired piece is getting a lot of play in the blogosphere because it articulates just how male-dominated the podcasting world is. According to the article penned by Steve Freiss, 85% of the attendees at JabberJaW, a conference for podcasters, were male, and podcaster Leo LaPorte, host of This Week in Tech, says that 97% of his audience is not female.

It’s funny but after spending years as one of the few females at many communications and tech events, I don’t even notice the lack of my peers anymore. Things are so bad that the President of Women in Technology International is a man.
