Three Guardian journalists have claimed it is guilty of "racism and editorial whiteness" after the paper's historic links to the slave trade were "whitewashed" from their podcast on slavery.
A spokesman for The Guardian said: “The Guardian has been working on a significant editorial project relating to its own history which is to be published soon.
“The project is being led by a diverse team of experienced and respected Guardian editors, with close involvement from a large number of colleagues and experts who also represent diverse perspectives.
“We are concerned that some former colleagues and contributors have not had a good experience working with us, but we are disappointed they have chosen to write a partial reflection of their time at the Guardian.
“We always take any concerns raised with us seriously, and we acted immediately to respond to the individuals, including by offering a mediation process, which took place with a mediator chosen by the individuals themselves.
“The project is largely complete and will not pull any punches in terms of transparency. It will be published in the next few months, and we then look forward to discussing it with readers and colleagues.”
