Stuttering in the Media

Stuttering has been discussed and depicted in various forms of media. The CST believes in the importance of all people feeling they are represented in all forms of media, with people who stutter being no different. 

Stuttering has been a subject in stories ranging from news stories in the Boston Globe to videos published by mission-driven nonprofit organizations. Below are several examples of stuttering in the media:
