BUZZFEED’S 2017 DIVERSITY NUMBERS for its newsroom show an overall increase in women and people of color, especially in leadership and managerial roles. Its latest data also shows significantly more women and people of color on staff at all levels than many other American newsrooms, including online-only outlets.
“In the past year, diversity in our newsroom has grown at every level, though there is certainly still room to improve,” Editor in Chief Ben Smith wrote in a note to staff, which was shared with CJR.
