NY Times Reporter Hammers Liberal Event Over Lack of Racial Diversity
15th September 2017
Liberals and Democrats in the “mainstream media” spend most of their time criticizing Republican President Donald Trump, but that doesn’t mean they won’t hammer away at each other if they feel they’ve been slighted, even at an event aimed at the political left.
That was the case on Thursday when New York Times reporter Sopan Deb tweeted a complaint that almost all of the 61 speakers at Politico‘s Pro Policy Summit in Washington, D.C., that day contained “a pretty startling lack of minorities.”
“From my count,” she continued, “only one person of color. It’s possible I missed some, so feel free to correct me.”
Not a surprise. The whole premise of liberalism is that Right-Thinking White People are fully empowered to speak for non-white people, since they often have no clue as to what their Politically Correct interests are; having an actual non-white person involved would be redundant.
