Both publications are the gold standard for UK lefties who want a safe space to vent about all the things they hate about the UK.
The problem is that the more "mainstream" publications like The Guardian and Eurogamer also pay more. Which means that they're going to attract the "best" journalists.
Speaking of Eurogamer, they're looking to launch a paid work experience program for "ethnic minorities".

I don't really understand as to how "ethnic minorities" are being held back in the contemporary era. KSI is a really big (FIFA endorsing) Youtuber who also has a fairly successful rap career.
KSI alone is proof that an "ethnic minority" can be successful in today's gaming arena. In fact, he's been successful for a while.
If an "ethnic minority" really wanted to be a journalist today, all they'd need to do is open up a WordPress powered website, and write a blog post a week. It's what the whole "blogging" craze is predicated on. Besides... Nobody needs to know your ethnicity. They just need to know that you're a good writer. That you have a few good ideas. That you have the determination to go out there and grab a few scoops and interviews (which can all be conducted via email).
I mean... My username is Qwertz12345. I haven't mentioned that I'm female, black, and a lesbian.
Actually... I'm none of the above. But that's not the point... Because nobody on here needs to know. And I don't see as to why my gender, colour, or sexual orientation should ever get in the way of a good story.
Like... seriously... If a person wanted to be a journalist, then all they'd need to do is open up a WordPress powered website. That only costs about $50 (including hosting).
In principle, that's no different than KSI wanting to be a Youtuber. All he needed to do was buy a cheap $100 camcorder / phone, and upload videos that way.
I mean, all you need to do is search for "how to be a blogger" on Youtube, and you'll find a whole heap of bloggers who are "marginalised" but are also doing relatively ok within their niches.
