WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER (As ASNE noted the continuing white male dominance of newspaper staffs, “Outnumbered but Well Spoken,” a study by Oxford University researchers, linked the overwhelmingly male bylines and news sources at The New York Times to the male dominance of online commenters about the Times coverage. Women commenters, however, were more likely than men to have their comments “recommended” with the click of the Times’ thumbs-up sign.) ASNE’s 2014 report covered 36,700 staffers at 965 of the nation’s 1,373 daily newspapers during 2013. Based on those organizations’ responses, these were among ASNE’s main findings: Sixty-three percent of news organizations surveyed had at least one woman among their top three editors in 2013, and 15 percent of news organizations had at least one person of color among their top three editors in 2013. (The current report on 2013 staffing is the first to probe women and minority leadership.) The proportion of female supervisors inched up from 34.6 percent in 2012 to 35.4 percent in 2013. During the same period, the proportion of female copy/layout editors and online content producers rose from 39.9 percent to 41.6 percent; female reporters/writers rose from 37.8 percent to 38.1 percent; and female photographers, artists and videographers rose from 24.9 percent to 26.8 percent. Minorities comprised 13.3 percent of all newsroom staff, up from 12.3 in 2013. The figure peaked at 13.7 in 2006. The proportion of female staffers who were multiracial rose, in comparison to multiracial male staffers, from 47 percent in 2012 to 51 percent in 2013. The proportion of female staffers who were Native American rose, in comparison to Native American male staffers, from 38 percent in 2012 to 41 percent in 2013.
