Kit measures how inclusive and representative your coverage is
The Maynard Institute's 'Reality Checks' kit provides tools for measuring and discussing how accurately the news reflects the realities of America's multicultural society. The kit provides tools for an analysis of both your community's characteristics and your local newspaper content through the prism of the fault lines of race, gender, class, generation and geography. The purpose is to help journalists make news coverage more inclusive and representative of their communities. |
