That was right about the same time last fall when NBCs executives met with members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus and NBC News President Deborah Turness told us. "We love the Hispanic community." as she updated us on strides they were making on diversity in hiring. She made it very clear that she had our communitys interests at heart when she said. "Yo hablo Espahol" in her beautiful British accent. Most of the news coverage of this meeting was about when she used the term "illegals" to describe immigrants. which. in case you need a reminder. is not a good idea when you are meeting with members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. Well. forgive me for not noticing just how much progress NBC was making on diversity when some of the most visible people of color at NBC. like Alex Wagner. Melissa HarrisPerry. and Jose DiazBalart. are disappearing.
