“Frontline” is expanding the reach of its investigative and deep-dive reporting into the realm of podcasting. The six-episode “Frontline Dispatch” series bows Sept. 14 with a look at the prevalence of child marriage in the U.S.
The series is supported by a donation from the Boston-based Abrams Foundation. The gift allows “Frontline” to commit to a three-year cycle of producing what “Frontline” exec producer Raney Aronson-Rath calls “audio documentaries.”
To support the podcasting initiative, “Frontline” has hired Jay Allison, a public radio vet and creator of “The Moth Radio Hour,” as senior editor and creative director, as well as two producers Jamie York and Sophie McKibben and editor Andrew Metz. The podcasts are produced out of “Frontline’s” headquarters at Wgbh-tv Boston and will be distributed biweekly by Prx. They’ll be available via the websites of “Frontline” and PBS as well as Apple Podcasts and other podcasting apps.
