The youngest fear they will have to choose between a career and a family; mid-career women madly juggle the pressures of work and family while worrying that they are not “good mothers”; and the most senior reflect on decades of accomplishments mixed with frustration at newsroom sexism that has held them back.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eListening carefully to the stories these journalists tell, both about themselves and about what they write, Smith reveals in \u003cem\u003eOutsiders Still \u003c\/em\u003ehow overt hostility to women in the newsroom has been replaced by systemic inequality that limits or ends the careers of many female journalists.
