The Old, White NAB - By Lyssa Graham

Somehow, you can know a thing and still not believe it until you see it. Thanks to the NAB Radio Show 2000 in San Francisco, I now know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that radio is run by old white guys.
They were everywhere. For a moment I thought that I had fallen into a nest of Southern Baptists. Even the people of color were represented by white guys. The keynote speaker for the big industry breakfast was Colin Powell, an openly white man who, to borrow from George Carlin, happens to be black. No disrespect intended by that, but the truth is Colin Powell is about a close to his black roots as Loni Anderson's hair is to hers.
Sure, there were a few black, brown and yellow folks running around the show, but most of the faces were white. Old and white. It's frightening, really. Go to story link to read more of this commentary.
