A new report by the Women's Media Center documents the systemic racism and gender bias in the U.S. News Media. The report, "The Status of Women of Color in the U.S. News Media 2018," shows that women of color are severely underrepresented in all news media.
We discuss the report, and the challenges the female journalists of color face in the industry. Our guests:
- Tianna Manon, reporter at WXXI News, and editor-in-chief ofOpen Mic Rochester
- Kaci Jones, reporter at WHEC-TV
- Teej Jenkins, manager and producer of City 12, and host of Arts in Focus on WXXI-TV
