Help for freelancers and a podcast training webinar
Happy Monday! Skim for your weekly roundup of jobs, industry readings, resources and more.
đ» Help for freelancers: Rachel Charlene Lewis, senior editor at Bitch Media, shared an excellent freelancing guide in a Google Sheet with editorial contacts, resources on how to pitch and a great tracking template.
đ â12 publishersâ diversity statisticsâ: Digiday reported that a dozen news organizationsâ âdiversity profiles â based on self-reported breakdowns of the makeup of their staff, including leadership and manager-level positions and new hires â reveals that nearly all of the companies included have majority white staff, leadership and new hires.â
đ âHow to make a podcastâ: The Newswomenâs Club of New York is hosting a free podcasting event on March 18 featuring Caila Litman of CondĂ© Nast; Golda Arthur, an independent podcast showrunner, audio producer and journalist; Jordan Gass-Poore, an audio producer with CNN; and Alex Brook Lynn, a multimedia journalist.
They will âwalk you through every stage of launching your show, from planning to publishing.â
Thanks for reading!

P.S. Here are a few things that fueled this newsletter/me this week:
đ âThe story behind herâ: Ms. Magazine published a Q&A with NYT Editor Charo HenrĂquez, who is âpushing for change in newsrooms.â
đș Catching up on âThe Wireâ: We missed âThe Wireâ when it came out so weâre working our way through it now.
đ€Šââïž âQuarantine Day 365â: WaPoâs Dave Jorgenson is all of us, marking a full year of lockdown with a barely half-hearted TikTok dance.
