The Financial Times has launched a fellowship for aspiring ethnic minority journalists in memory of “much-loved” sub-editor Maisie Hylton.
Charlotte Tobitt of The Press Gazette writes, “Hylton, who spent 20 years on the FT production desk after 12 years at the Independent, died of a heart attack in June last year aged 59.
“In her obituary, FT colleagues said she was as valued for her ‘sharp eyes, calm manner and professionalism in the face of a deadline.
“Creative Access, the non-profit social enterprise which is working with the FT on the fellowship, said it was being launched ‘with the aim of promoting greater diversity at the FT, a cause close to Maisie’s heart.'”
