Tech Companies Deserve More Credit because of their Diversity

Let’s start cutting tech companies some slack over the diversity of their workplaces.

Facebook may be the latest company to be lambasted in the media for a perceived insufficient diversity of employees, with USA Today going as far as to state Facebook’s workforce is indicative of "a business sector dominated by white men."
