Here is a troubled business that keeps hiring employees whose attitudes vastly annoy the customers.
这是一个棘手的行业,却不断地雇用观点总体上使客户恼怒的雇员。
Then it sponsors lots of symposiums and a credibility project dedicated to wondering why customers are annoyed and fleeing in large numbers.
然后它又出资组织研讨会和可信度调查项目,去探究为什么顾客们恼火了,为什么会有那么多人逃避新闻。
But it never seems to get around to noticing the cultural and class biases that so many former buyers are complaining about.
但它似乎从来就没回过头来去注意那么多以前的顾客所抱怨的文化和阶级偏见。
If it did, it would open up its diversity program, now focused narrowly on race and gender, and look for reporters who differ broadly by outlook, values, education, and class.
如果它能注意这个问题的话,它就应该进一步开放其多样化项目(这个项目现在还只单纯考虑招收不同种族和性别的员工),进一步寻找那些世界观、价值观、教育水平和社会阶层各不相同的各种记者。
