A Reader Writes in to Complain

A lovely reader named “Rosie43” writes in to comment on “Fishbowl’s Finest” skin-deep media feature happening this week.

“Rosie” writes:

“Oh look! All I see are white people. Apparently FishbowlDC doesn’t believe that black people are beautiful too. Is anyone surprised by the racism displayed here?”

Dear Rosie,

Your upbeat name defies your attitude and trust in humanity. But since you’re accusing us of all-out racism, we’ll take the bait and respond. Today is Day 3 of “Fishbowl’s Finest” a week-long celebration of beautiful Washington journalists, and you have cried racism on Day 2.
