Global Situation Room bridges PR and podcasting with Situation Room Studios

Strategic communications firm Global Situation Room (GSR) is scaling production of news podcasts by creating a new division called Situation Room Studios. 

Christine Baratta, previously a longtime executive producer at Bloomberg, is overseeing Situation Room Studios with help from R.J. Bee, who created the podcast company Osiris Media. 

Over the last two years, GSR has produced podcasts such as Pod is a Woman and One Decision, the former of which was ranked by Time and Cosmopolitan magazines as among the best political podcasts, according to an agency statement.
