<blockquote><font size="1" face="TImes, TimesNR, serif">quote:</font><hr>Originally posted by jjmoney62: I went through group sensitive training a dozen years ago just a few weeks after I started at the Sun-Times in Chicago (in the wake of the "raccoon" story), and while it was mocked mercilessly during the process, it wasn't a waste of time. ...<hr></blockquote> Let me remind you, Mr. Money, that the sensitivity training that you attended was a gimmick-filled carnival that included people wandering around a room with blindfolds on and later karate-chopping a piece of wood to show that they’d “broken through barriers.” If such training were sensitive instead of stupid, it would be worthwhile. Rather than karate chops, it would be wiser for people to work on their editing chops – not calling illegal immigrants “illegals” on second reference, not automatically describing what a woman is wearing, etc.
