Media Matters
have just released their report
Gender and Ethnic Diversity in Prime Time Cable News.
Looking at the breakdown of guests on cable shows in the
month of May, 2008, they found: 960 white men, 76 black
women, 21 Latina women, and 6 Asian women. As the Womens
Media Center has been pointing out, only 2 of the 12
primetime hosts are women and none of the Sunday morning
talk show hosts are women.
-
Some Rutgers University researchers were astonished by their
findings recently. They were looking at a sample of 366
op-ed pieces written by academics in three major newspapers,
and what they found
“most
astonishing”
was that almost all of the opinions came from men: 97
percent in The Wall Street Journal, 82 percent in
The New York Times, and 78 percent in the
Newark Star Ledger.

"I thought you
would be interested in learning more about FDIC and SIPC. I have
received many questions over the past few weeks about these two
types of account protection."
