Fake Diversity: Is our journalism really for everyone? (2023x11)

Udgivelsesdato: Mar 28, 2023

The public media are diverse, many presenters obviously have diverse characteristics and hardly any program website can do without pictures of people with a migration background. It seems as if the broadcasters are committed to diversity. So far so good, but if you move behind the scenes, you notice something else: On the NDR premises, between the offices where topics are set and program decisions are made, everything suddenly seems much more homogeneous. No trace of visible diversity. STRG_F reporters Lia and Sulai ask the question: Why is it that everything seems so different in front of the camera than behind it? Or is the impression misleading? They try to collect data, talk to apparently diverse presenters but also to journalists who bring special perspectives that you don't notice at first glance. Because diversity is much more than skin color.
