This is the sort of trite, self congratulatory "socially conscious" type of comment that is appearing all over the place. What does it have to do with Sony getting hacked? Nothing really. It does reveal the personal sentiments of the author somewhat, and also your own. Did the comment help anybody? I doubt it. Other than stoking resentment what possible purpose could stating that the executives were "overwhelmingly white males" possibly have?

I was under impression that identifying the inequality among upper management at Sony Pictures was at least part of the reason for the early release of that specific document. i.e. that point, was the point and should probably be in the opening of any reporting. Call it a low blow, call it whatever you like, I just don't think any female / non white guy would appreciate how belittling your comments are.

But them I am kind of biased since the whole ghotz debacle. Suck fony and all that. (yes I know this is sony pic, not sony)
