Priya Shankar
Culture & Entertainment Reporter
Celebrity minutiae, streaming wars, and the semiotics of red carpet fashion
Priya covers culture with the seriousness usually reserved for climate science and the rigor usually reserved for neither. She has published six "definitive rankings" of the same TV show across three years, citing "evolving critical discourse" for the contradictions. Her background includes an MFA and a brief period of honest employment, both of which she speaks about sparingly.
