Original: TV’s So White Again: Diversity Now Seen as "Optional"

The analysis points to a retreat from casting and hiring commitments made in recent years, raising concern among industry observers that hard-won gains in on-screen and behind-the-camera representation are being quietly rolled back.

Why now: Fresh reporting suggests networks are scaling back diversity commitments, sparking debate about representation in television.
