Swings

I'm not sure exactly how the student monitors at City University do their gender counting of major broadcast news outlets, but one stat this year has moved dramatically in favour of women.

Under the category 'reporters/correspondents', the 2018 survey of the Today programme on Radio 4 shows the ratio of appearances has moved in favour of women, by 1.3 to 1.  The 2017 survey put the figure at 1.7 men to every 1 woman.
