Buckle up: Boeing takes flight from diversity department
The plane builder has decided to ditch its global diversity, equity, and inclusion department - getting back to the basics of… building planes (sort of).
Actually, the DEI team will be merged with another HR department that predominantly focuses on talent and employee experience, Bloomberg reported, citing sources.
Sara Liang Bowen, the former head of DEI at Boeing, was quick to "take flight" from the company, leaving her position on LinkedIn, as the company leans towards a more “grounded approach.”
Another step closer to DEI-free skies?

‘Garbagegate’: Fury flies as Biden WH press office caught in editing scandal
According to The AP, the supervisor of White House stenographers expressed frustration in an email, stating that while the press office can choose to withhold transcripts, they cannot independently edit them.
The controversy arose after stenographers heard Biden comment on Trump’s “supporters" being "the only garbage I see floating out there," directed at a comedian who had made a joke about Puerto Rico.
However, the White House press office added an apostrophe to "supporter's," suggesting Biden's comment was solely aimed at the comedian, not his supporters.
