Face the Nation's Panel
This Sunday's edition of CBS's news show Face the Nation showcased a discussion panel composed of the top correspondents at CBS. As the correspondents were being named I noticed that none of the top correspondents were racial minorities. I am not trying to make a really big deal about this issue, but I did what to have a discussion about the fact that none of the top correspondents at CBS are racial minorities. So what do duers think about the fact that CBS and some major networks seem to have very few senior correspondents that are racial minorities?

Another thing that struck me was the legal correspondent that was featured on the show. The main question I had about her was what were her qualifications for being the legal correspondnet and whether or not she had any international law experience. I do not think all legal correspondents should have international law experience, but I think if someone is going to discuss international law issues they should have international law experience. So, what do others think?
