Thank you for responding in writing. I was taken aback by Berliner article as a trained journalist and longtime listener and supporter of NPR. I have continued to try and engage in Bari Weiss' platform to ensure that I maintain 'viewpoint diversity' as the media empire grows and social media reinforces our bubbles but at this point, the failure to understand that diversity means some folks who used to be centered have to make room for new viewpoints seems utterly lost on these critics. Whether it be called 'woke' or 'groupthink', the failure to understand what it means to include the viewpoints of many is a a missing skill. I just hope the democracy can withstand all this attack from all sides and that people return to some semblance of tolerance until we get to the other side--a true multiracial, multicultural democracy.
