Indigenous TV journalist Stan Grant has sent a letter to the ABC slamming the national broadcaster for its lack of diversity during its coverage of the NSW election.
The Q&A host sent the outraged letter to management on Sunday and ripped into his own employer for using an 'entire white panel' on during its state election coverage.
David Speers and Sarah Ferguson led the panel on Saturday night with appearances from NSW treasurer Matt Kean and Labor frontbencher Penny Sharpe.
Grant, a Wiradjuri man born in 1963, questioned how it was 'acceptable' and accused the broadcaster of using non-white journalists as 'cameos'.
Grant said he was 'fed up' with the broadcaster claiming it was on a 'journey' towards diversity, and claimed 'the dial has barely moved' in 40 years.
He said he had seen no significant change in diversity or equity since joining the broadcaster 40 years ago and was 'fed-up' with its empty promises to lead change.
