The media is a powerful institution. It has the power to shape public discourse, to frame the terms of policy debate, and to be a watchdog for public interest. The Adventures of Rhea: Cobrapost Affair is a comic book about the media and the power of truth-telling.

Fearless, fiery, hardworking and keen, Rhea Baughman is a reporter, an adventurer and a champion of justice. In a world where women remain underrepresented in newsrooms, Rhea stands for the resilience and strength that we have come to associate with our very best female journalists.
