Editorial: Lightfoot raises the right point about diversity in Chicago journalism — but in the wrong way – Chicago Sun-Times*

"If Lightfoot really cares about solving the issue of media inequity, she simply could have have called in the reporters of color and done the interviews without the advance virtue signaling. So instead of bringing credible attention to a real problem, it looks to us like Lightfoot, battered by the press, is attempting to use reporters of color to get positive news coverage. And it all strikes us as wrong and more than a bit naive."
