- Objectivity is a word that we hear a lot when it comes to journalism and reporters, but minority communities have often accused the media of racism. When 76% of newsrooms are white and predominantly male, is "objectivity" really just code for the white male gaze? When it comes to reporting around police shootings, the news has often shown a bias towards the police narrative. But in the aftermath of George Floyd's killing and the Minneapolis Uprising, are newsrooms doing better when it comes to media and racism?
