‘White-Washed’ News Media
Last week saw the release of a study by Deakin university showing just how white-washed our television news media really is. The report, titled “Who gets to tell Australian stories?” gave us insight into how little representation we have on Australian TV for people of non-European and Indigenous backgrounds. To talk about the impacts of a lack of diversity on television, we had Dr Usha M. Rodrigues who joined us today.
