A study by Women in Journalism has exposed the extent to which male journalists still dominate front-page bylines.

It looked at national newspaper front pages between 5 June and 22 July 2017 and found that 25 per cent of stories were written by women.

This suggests little has changed since WIJ last carried out a study of this kind, between 16 April and 13 May 2012. That study found that only 22 per cent of national newspaper front-page stories were written by women.
