  • Stuff The New York Times Likes: White People

Earlier this week, a tweet from The Nation’s Chris Hayes directed our attention to the, shall we say, “monochromatic” nature of the panel polled for a recent New York Times“ Room for Debate” opinion feature, “Rising Wealth Inequality: Should We Care?”

We know the Times meant well, but take a look at the debaters below and see if you agree. (Also, is it just us or does the guy in the bottom right look kinda familiar?)
