Once again, NPR has managed to make complete hash of its promises to diversify its staff to include minorities. NPR's most recent lost opportunity occurred a couple of days ago, when the proudly liberal network announced two new executives for its news divisions. Both are NPR insdiers; both are Caucasian.
Unsurprisingly, the network supported by tax dollars and "from listeners like you" made a backhanded defense of its lack of diversity.
Its announcement, response to a question about diversity, and other aspects of the NPR story, are available via Richard Prince's Journal-isms blog.
