Indigenous journalist's exit sparks criticism of Australian media.

Aboriginal journalist Stan Grant's decision to leave Australian TV screens indefinitely has reignited conversations about racism and media diversity in Australia. Despite the country's multicultural population, the media remains disproportionately white, with a 2022 study finding that over three-quarters of reporters or presenters on Australian TV were from an Anglo-Celtic cultural background. Culturally diverse journalists say they face more barriers to entering the Australian media industry than their peers, and cases like Grant's expose the problem outlets have in retaining them when they do make it.
