I suggest Dori Maynard, CEO of the Maynard Institute for Journalism
Education. MIJE has been working successfully in the affirmative action field for 25
years, training and supplying people of color to newsrooms all over the country.
It is emblematic of a partnership approach with the industry that has proven
affirmative action can work---thousands of its graduates are positioned in key
news jobs, many serving as management. Dori is articulate, rational and
informed, as her recent op-ed piece in the Sunday San Francisco Chronicle
demonstrates (you can read it on the Maynard website under "Columns"
