    "Of 861 articles this year, not one was written by a black columnist." 1) fair fucks to the FT for printing this, & 2) when will people realise "lack of diversity" means "lack of knowledge & experience"? The old, white, posh, male press's demograph is going off a cliffhttps://twitter.com/lionelbarber/status/1052086172674154496 …

        Doesn't help that entry to a media career is often through unpaid work at the outset, thereby erecting barriers for those from less advantaged backgrounds. I'm not hugely privileged but could still afford to work for free initially, a luxury not everyone has.

        Exactly! I have railed against the unpaid internship for years. I have always believed that it was unfair, in general, not to pay someone for their work. However, this practice is also prejudiced in nature, as it excludes most students coming from low-income households.

        I was lucky to get in before the era of the internship as we understand it now. I did two weeks unpaid, impressed the right people so was kept on full freelance pay, then got staff job. Nothing like the months & months of interning expected now, but still unaffordable to some.

        You were very lucky. I know people who worked, unpaid, for over a year, before finally being offered a paid position. They were obviously working another job outside of this, in order to get by, but they were living at home with their parents.

        This was in 2006, which I suppose was such a different socio-economic landscape from today that it might as well have been 1066. I was 23, living alone, paying rent and did my 2wks work experience on holiday from my call centre job.

        Love the lack of irony in the letter writer’s letter where he consistently disguinshes between people based on their colour of their skin alone.
