What's in a definition?
An AP sports story picked up by our local paper today is entitled "Baseball Struggling with Diversity." However, diversity, as they define it, deals only with African Americans. While Hispanics and Asians are flocking to the baseball, African-Americans are not. Therefore, since the interest of African-American youths is focusing on other sports, baseball isn't diverse enough. Forget Asians and Hispanics, diversity is defined by the number of blacks on your team; well, at least according to the AP.
