Any other freelancers here who feel like you get the blame for things in-house staff do because we're good scapegoats?

I get blamed for things I have not even written to cover up poor in-house practices. I have learned to make sure I make notes and keep receipts just in case.

All the time. I learned the hard way to document absolutely everything. If someone tries to throw me under the bus, I am more than happy to prove that things did not happen like they say.

Journalism is the best job in the world but I feel like people are less likely to take my work seriously because I am female. So it's like they automatically think the only things I would be good at writing about are fluffy little human interest stories. I'm just a reporter like everyone else. Is there some way I can tell my supervisor that yes, I do like those stories, but I like being a serious reporter even more?

The argument that climate change is not man-made has been disproven by science over and over again, yet many people believe that the global crisis is either not real, not of our making, or both, in part because the news media deliberately chooses not to talk about it because it doesn't sell enough.
