“We assume women are writing for other women, and, within the women’s writing genre, that each group is writing only for its own niche audience. This does a disservice to the writers and the audience. The simplest way to create empathy for people who seem unfamiliar to us is to share stories about our and their lives. The more we see both similarities and differences, the more able we are to understand complexities and not be tricked into believing the unfamiliar is dangerous.”

“men themselves are not the problem here, but the embedded, self-perpetuating toxic boys’ club culture, dominated by a narrow perspective and wary of challenges to its dominance, can skew the what when and how decisions of everyday journalism.”

“welfare, immigration and feminism. What used to be known as Fairfax Media has tried to stick to the middle ground of political ideology on all these issues by providing more information on facts and expert analysis, while still acknowledging the more reasonable naysayers. The Guardian has staked its claim to left-leaning readers who reject and dislike the News Corp stance almost as much as News detests the ‘leftist’ view. Their opinion, feature and analysis articles are usually written by people who have already accepted the progressive premise and argue on the details of implementing change they understand to be necessary. All of these publications claim they are producing fair, verifiable and objective journalism. The public broadcaster is left swinging unhappily between all points of view and takes a battering from all sides for doing so.”
