I cannot put into words how hard it was for me, as a white male, to find work in broadcast journalism coming out of college in the early 90s. Well, actually I can put it into words: It was IMPOSSIBLE. Nobody was hiring anyone that wasn't either a minority or a female, and plenty of potential employers admitted this to my face (off the record, of course). I am absolutely ecstatic to see this institutionalized racism and hate made illegal FOREVER.

Did you ever consider changing your name to Geraldo Rivera?

Forever? "The high court declined, without comment or dissent, to hear an appeal...." Therefore, it looks to me as if it's illegal only until another court rules differently.

Nothing is forever. The FCC under chairman Powell has already issued a public notice seeking comments on a new and improved racial quota, oh, excuse me, diversity system.

The rancid misinformation purveyed as "news" by the lefties of the Fourth Estate used to be good for a laugh at least, but out of the mouth of "info-babes" it becomes a virulent, disgusting plague as it issues forth colored by their smug arrogance. For years, I have avoided watching or listening to such, and I wondered why there were so many, and so hard to avoid. So that's the answer -- affirmative action. I might have known. Thank you, sir.

Hey, the white male is still discriminated against. Try getting any government job coming out of college, and it is almost as difficult. They usually only take minorities and women if there is no previous work experience (internships don't count).
