In this episode of our podcast we look at how class divisions impact newsrooms and the journalism they produce.
We discuss why journalists from working-class backgrounds are so under-represented in British newsrooms and the types of prejudice and micro-aggressions they face. We discuss complexities in measuring progress and how newsroom managers can create a better environment for a more diverse workforce.
