Just take the "black" or "hispanic" or "latino" or "gay" out of your resume

Could you imagine a major newspaper, magazine, or media outlet suggesting one of those courses of action ... in order to make your resume "portray a modern image?"

And yet, that's precisely what today's Wall Street Journal suggests in "Botox for the Resume: One Woman's Image Makeover."

It's not just offensive it's utterly REVOLTING and should be ILLEGAL in the context of the Equal Employment Opportunity Act. Period.

Is this what we have to look forward to now that Murdoch owns the WSJ? That's another topic altogether.
