    The Full View- Episode 3- How do we prioritise news?

    Host- Deb Daniel Guest: Assed Baig Join me on this episode of "The Full View" podcast as I reflect on a fascinating conversation with Assed Baig, journalist for Al Jazeera. Today's discussion is all about how news stories are prioritised and the implications of those choices. As always, The Full View strives to bring insightful and inspiring guests to challenge groupthink in the media and encourage journalists to speak out about what really matters. Diversity is a crucial component of this, and the podcast is committed to promoting merit-based hiring in the media industry. While the field can be competitive, I encourage listeners to pursue their passions and not be discouraged. Although some truths may be disheartening, I remind us of the power of using statistics, facts, and stories to challenge the lack of diversity in journalism. It's crucial to recognise people of colour as part of the majority, rather than a minority. Recent census data (2021) shows that POC represent over 50% of the population in Birmingham, making it essential to hear diverse voices and perspectives to get the full picture. For those looking to further advocate for diversity in the media industry, I recommend reading "Access All Areas" by Sir Lenny Henry and Marcus Ryder. Listeners are encouraged to provide feedback, and I express gratitude for their support and enthusiasm for future conversations with amazing guests. Tune in to this insightful episode of "The Full View" to challenge your thinking and stay engaged with important conversations about diversity and journalism. Don't miss it!

    The Full View- Episode 1- Making the Headlines: the Importance of diverse coverage in Journalism

    Host- Deb Daniel Guest- Eden Gessese Guest- Deborah Belay Guest- Marcus Ryder In the first episode of this series, I will examine the impact of groupthink on media coverage, focusing on Ethiopia as my case study. Our guests, Eden Gessesse and Deborah Belay, both members of the Ethiopian community in Birmingham, will shed light on the lack of attention given to the Amhara genocide in Western newsrooms and their frustrations with incomplete or negative coverage of Ethiopia. Additionally, we will explore ways to encourage Western newsrooms to prioritise coverage of Africa. In the second part, we will be joined by Marcus Ryder, editor of Black British Lives Matter and Head of external consultancies at the Lenny Henry Centre for Media Diversity. We will delve into the significance of diversity in journalism, discussing why certain stories are not highlighted in the media, the pressures of doing stories with higher demand, and whether the lives of certain people are prioritised over others. Furthermore, we will explore why journalists fear discussing diversity and the potential repercussions of doing so. Hope you enjoy the episode and please do feel free to reach out.
