Minorities at Networks

I read with great interest Marco Perez’s letter concerning the lack of people of color working in positions of authority at the major networks (Letters, Aug. 10). It must be very difficult for CBS’ Anita Addison and NBC’s Charisse McGhee-Lazarou being in the unenviable, Jackie Robinson-like position of being the “Only One” and having to deal with colleagues’ racial and cultural blind spots on a daily basis.

I guess the logos of the Big Three say it all. CBS’ and ABC’s have no color at all, and obviously the NBC peacock is multicolored merely for chromatic effect. What a bummer.
