Re: Equality in advertising
It is illegal to discriminate in employment in the US. If they posted a job in the local paper and said "females, blacks, Jews, and other riff raff need not apply" they would be in clear violation of the laws. By only allowing their preferred group to even see the job ad they are accomplishing the same discriminatory end. The "wrong" type of people cannot see the ad so they cannot apply so they cannot compete equally for the job. The Employment Laws are concerned with the end results, not how sneaky you can be getting there.
