I agree that things can go too far, and one example is when unqualified people advance due to some aspect of themselves that they cannot change (skin color, sex, etc.) However, that doesn't seem to be the case here in this discussion. Do you really know that the people in the commercial are unqualified? Do you know that the women sportscasters are unqualified? The local news that I watch has a female sportscaster, and she does her job as well as the males. The female sportscaster on MNF does as well as anybody else. You may have a grudge if an incompetent person got their position due to being a minority, but I really haven't heard that here.
