Newsrooms that covered protests for racial justice are now being forced to confront racism and inequity within their own organizations. On NPRItsBeenaMin journalists from The Undefeated, Latino USA, and the NPR public editor speak about this reckoning.

In this episode we ask, what does the future of the news industry look like? Plus, what does it mean for the average news consumer and communities of color in America?culture critic Soraya Nadia McDonald on the lack of diversity in newsrooms

And I think in journalism, we have not spent enough time with the very same folks who are often disenfranchised when it comes to media coverage as well. Black people, immigrants, women, people of color ⁠— the same folks. If folks look at the newspaper and they look at a website or they listen to the radio, and their conclusion is that these entities are not telling the truth about them and their lives and how their lives are lived ... We are failing them.I don't want journalists of color to have to be warriors, in order to be able to work as journalists.

ItsBeenAMin Just heard your interview with Maria about racial injustices in the newsrooms. It was truly refreshing and educational in so many ways.

ItsBeenAMin NPR is biased and bigoted. Now you hire POC, but you hire those who do not speak correct English. And are useful idiot. I wish you well, without funding from me and the feds.

ItsBeenAMin It is inconceivable that a liberal journalist can NOT be racist, the entire leftist elite crowd is biased! The entire newsroom for nor and most others should be fired!

ItsBeenAMin You are a Democrat propaganda machine. That's it.

ItsBeenAMin The left eats it’s own. Charming

ItsBeenAMin Communist dictator (murdered millions) Mao Zedong's dictum & the slogan of Chinese Communist Party - 'women hold half of the sky'. Sleepy Joe Biden's rhetoric in a fundraiser - 'Women hold half of the sky'.

ItsBeenAMin Eating their own. Love it

ItsBeenAMin the only way for most of the racist corporate media organizations to confront racism to shut their doors...

ItsBeenAMin In game theory “signaling” is revealing yourself, intentionally or not. 2020 is humanity’s signaling what we really are. We are a species that, despite our idealism and social nature, is self-destructing because we will always hate each other and divide. Might be unresolvable.

ItsBeenAMin So does that mean that if you don’t agree with the progressive movement you are a racist if you are white.

ItsBeenAMin Racism is something Democrats struggle with. They need a history lesson since they seem to want to erase history.

ItsBeenAMin NPR and PBS both have major problems in diversity in their programming, hosts, and leadership positions. But I guess they get a free ride for being racist because they are Democrats like Ralph Northam and Joe Biden.

ItsBeenAMin Have at it!

ItsBeenAMin Thanks to the racial justice movement, more black people are being killed by black people in black neighborhoods now than any time since the 1990s.

ItsBeenAMin This woman couldn’t BE more RACIST!!!
