Description: "Black Journalists, White Media is based on the experiences of journalists of African-Caribbean and Asian descent. One hundred black journalists working in all sectors of the media, including newspapers, television and radio were interviewed by the author. The book links the under-representation of black journalists in the white media to discrimination, direct and indirect, and demonstrates the weakness of the media unions in putting positive action equal opportunity policies into practice. This book will be of interest to students, teachers and researchers in journalism, media and communication studies, sociology and race relations."--Book cover.
