Right, so I'm sure if there had been an article about a young white doctor helping out a sick pax, you would have all taken to PPRuNe to yell "Well they better have checked she was qualified"? Or maybe you wouldn't have?
If you needed any more proof that it's still damn hard to be a black professional in 2016, it's right here for all to see. The immediate assumption that "it must have been a mistake and "bigotry and racism sell newspapers" is as good an explanation as any as to why the likes of Trump can potentially become heads of state. Depressing.
