Younger, cheaper journalists being hired worldwide, study shows: A new report by the International Federation of Journalists highlights a worldwide trend of experienced senior staff being replaced by younger graduates who are often employed on a casual or freelance basis and on less pay.
The report, entitled The Changing Nature of Work: A Global Survey, polled 41 journalists' organisations in 38 countries that are affiliated to the IFJ, which includes the National Union of Journalists in the UK.
