💨 Abstract

The article discusses a woman over 50's struggle to find work in the factual television industry, despite having decades of experience and a strong skill set. The author argues that ageism, particularly towards older women, is a significant factor in this difficulty. She shares personal experiences of age-related discrimination and the industry's overall decline, which exacerbates the problem. The author calls for the industry to enforce age diversity targets similar to those for ethnicity and disability.
