The Next Step: Toward Diversity in the Newspaper Business.
Hines, Judith D.
This booklet presents solutions to one of the major problems facing the United States newspaper industry: the persistently low representation of minorities on staffs and in management. Following an introduction, the booklet is in eight sections: (1) Retaining and Promoting Minority Employees; (2) Valuing and Managing Diversity; (3) Newspaper Content; (4) Networking; (5) Recruiting; (6) Starting Early...Very Early (models for interesting younger students in newspapering); (7) Check It Out! (examples of ongoing actions, programs, and policies at individual newspapers or groups that are making a difference); and (8) We Can Do It! Sixteen briefly annotated references are attached. (SR)
