  You could say the same for historians, I suppose...

  What a shame the article itself doesn't allow comments, so I'll have to post here.
  
  I'm not sure how too many media courses affects the representativeness of the media itself - surely broadening access to those courses makes it more likely that underrepresented groups get a foot in the door.
  
  But I do agree that low starting salaries and, particularly, the requirement for unpaid work experience in an expensive city, puts off a lot of poorer graduates. One of our graduates had to work for Natmags for 3 months for free - supporting herself in London (she was originally from Leeds) - before she landed a paid job. It isn't a route open to most people.
