“How are we as psychologists to regard a discipline that succeeds primarily in speaking to itself?” was how Gergen described our problems in 1995. This was not a problem for Dr. Marsha Redden and her colleagues. At times she spoke to a crowd of thousands of people, sharing psychological science, understanding of human behavior, and sometimes, giving some appreciated relief. We reported on Redden’s work with the Brony Fandom, perhaps the largest numbers of any story were reported on for 2015. For helping others in psychology plain talk, we are honored to give Dr. Redden our 2015 Media Award.
