So here's how it went. These two fools from Think Progress and Media Matters start bitching about lack of diversity on the Sunday Talk Shows.
"Think Progress’ Judd Legum and Media Matters’ Oliver Willis attempted to team up on CNN’s Jake Tapper over a perceived lack of diversity when it comes to which guests appear on the Sunday talk shows."
So Tapper freaking lays waste to them
Check this out....

@jaketapper I did not fault you for booking Sanders. I'm raising the point that the featured guests on the Sunday Show are dominated by men

Of course owillis you realize the audience is a tiny self-selected elite
