Overview
In 2019, there are far fewer women than men being quoted and featured in the
news media. It is crucial for newsrooms to give their audiences a more
representative view of society and draw upon diverse voices to tell stories.
Join Women in Journalism and Bloomberg for an evening discussion looking at how newsrooms are taking action to increase the representation of women and diverse sources, what still needs to be done, and why it matters.
Moderator:
Sonali Pathirana, Bloomberg News, managing editor for data driven news
Panelists:
Nina Goswami, BBC, senior producer and 50:50 project lead
Lis Howell, emeritus professor and director of the Expert Women project at City
University.
Eleanor Mills, Editor, Sunday Times Magazine, Sunday Times editorial director and WiJ chair
Laura Zelenko, Bloomberg News, senior executive editor for talent, diversity,
training and standards
