In this episode, Philippa and Katie speak over Zoom in the midst of the pandemic with journalist Sophie Ross. Ross rose to Twitter stardom when she put pieces of what eventually became Arielle Charnas' Covid-19 scandal together. Since then, Ross has continually painted full--and accurate--pictures of the transgressions that are made, and too often ignored, by some of Instagram's most influential influencers.
