This book addresses endemic issues of racism in news media at what is a critical moment in time, as journalists around the world speak out en masse against the prejudice and inequality in the industry. As the events of 2020 – the death of George Floyd, the rise in prominence of the Black Lives Matter movement – have drawn new and focused attention to inequality, white supremacy, and systemic racism, including in the media, this volume chronicles this racial reckoning, revisiting and examining the issues that it has raised. The author analyses media output by racialized and Indigenous journalists, identifying the racial make-up of newsrooms; the dominance of white perspectives in news coverage; interpretations of ethics downplaying systemic racism and bias; ignorance of racist history in editorial decisions and news content; and diversity and inclusion measures. The actions taken by news organizations in response to the reckoning are also detailed and placed in the context of existing race and media scholarship, to offer emerging strategies to address journalism’s longstanding issues with racism in news content and newsrooms. Grounding the interplay between news media and race within this pivotal moment in history, this text will be an important resource for students and scholars of journalism, journalism ethics, sociology, cultural studies, organizational studies, media and communication studies.

Drawing on high-profile cases, this book underscores the distinct and powerful threat to marginalized groups targeted by ongoing disinformation campaigns.It details how the right-wing media ecosystem and bad actors spread false narratives for political and economic ends and critically reflects on mainstream journalism's complicity. The authors consider a range of equity-deserving communities targeted by fallacious, harmful accounts that gain traction in the media discourse, such as the misrepresented research on the care and treatment of transgender youth, campaigns against Critical Race Theory in parts of the United States, and the misidentification of a murder suspect in the United Kingdom, which led to nationwide riots and attacks on Muslims and mosques. The central focus of the book is understanding how and why bad actors spread disinformation – and the role of news organizations in amplifying identity-based disinformation, specifically their ongoing adherence to outdated ethical norms. Space is dedicated to emerging best practices in newsgathering to identify and address disinformation.Overall, the volume highlights the urgent need for reforms to newsgathering practices and is a key read for advanced students and researchers interested in the intersection of journalism, discrimination, and disinformation.
