Beschreibung
Julie Welch was the first ever female football reporter. To achieve this role at the Observer, she had to battle the National Union of Journalists nearly calling a strike when she dared to write an article as a mere secretary (despite allowing men who weren't journalists to write for the same pages); an entire room of men falling silent to listen to her give her first football report over the phone, before pronouncing it passable, and many other battles in-between. Julie's personal journey will provide the backbone of the narrative, and she will interweave weaving the stories of many of the great women who were simultaneously climbing up the ranks, from Lynn Barber (of An Education fame) to Wendy Henry, the first woman to edit a Fleet Street newspaper, and many more, as well as several of the secretaries whom the men overlooked but who subsequently knew everything. Pioneers one and all --
