Diversity Checker: Toward recommendations for improving journalism with respect to diversity

The Diversity Checker is a tool that aims to make it easier for journalists to author their texts with diversity in mind. To provide helpful hints for them in this respect, it is necessary to define how to quantify diversity so that this can be programmed into the tool. At this early stage in the development of the tool, we present a two-fold contribution. First, we offer an analysis on what we mean by "improving diversity". Second, we present the first version of the Diversity Checker, along with some analysis of its current performance.
