Once again German public media looks foolish talking race/diversity with all-white panel. But why should who's in front of the camera come as a surprise when behind the camera looks much the same?
@WDRaktuell advisory board — "in the general interest."

And here's who oversees @rbb24 — public media for Berlin, Germany's allegedly most cosmopolitan city. The only obvious diversity (in the most pedestrian sense) filling the "foreigners and integration" slot on the board. https://www.rbb-online.de/rundfunkrat/mitglieder/rbb-rundfunkrat-mitglieder-2019-2023.html
Much the same @BR_Presse, whose 50-member advisory board includes 34 men and one visible person of color (again: for the foreigners). https://www.br.de/unternehmen/inhalt/rundfunkrat/mitglieder-v2-100~_node-e3d1d67f-58f6-40be-ac41-70a9bc70883b_-254e72520fc848419081814b4740729bd552df64.html
You'll be hard-pressed to scroll through much diversity at the national level, too — neither @ZDFpresse nor @DasErste, which are just the sum of their parts.

Finally, who advises on public media finances, which everyone in Germany pays. It isn't cheap and they want to raise it.
Public media is meant to reflect and serve society. In which case, the Rundfunk may be doing the former, but not so much the latter. https://kef-online.de/de/kommission/mitglieder/
