Diversity & Journalism | UBC Graduate School of Journalism
Canada | November 27, 2008
I gave a seminar at the graduate students of the UBC Graduate School of Journalism. This was a presentation on critical journalism and diversity that I had developed with Dr. Minelle Mahtani (University of Toronto).
This presentation also included practical methods of making diversity part of journalistic story-telling, and an exercise that demonstrated how the diversity of a newsroom affects the end-product.
Most memorable moment was when one of the few white male students asked me if he would be disadvantaged in an environment where newsrooms are struggling to better reflect the local diversity of their audiences.
