Source diversity tracking tool
Chalkbeat and the Reynolds Journalism Institute recently launched a free source diversity tracking tool for journalists. Learn more below or sign up to try it in your newsroom.
When people feel represented in journalism — when they hear and read voices that they trust and that remind them of their own stories — trust is built. But not enough newsrooms have systems in place to hold them accountable to source diversity. This is changing. Chalkbeat and the Reynolds Journalism Institute joined forces in 2021 to help small to medium-sized newsrooms seamlessly audit the diversity of their sources.
We created a tool for newsrooms and journalists to use for free — reach out to us to learn more about it, whether you’re an individual reporter or a decision-maker for your newsroom. Questions? You can reach us at sourcediversity@chalkbeat.org.
