Competition is fierce amongst bidders and frequently government agencies in insufficiently governed states decide who gets the job.

This concluding chapter summarizes the failures of the ASNE to deliver on its promise of newsroom diversity since the inception of its new hiring initiative. It reflects on the highlights, shortcomings, and ultimately the denouement of this chapter of ASNE (and newspaper) history as it charts the decline of the diversity project.

Interviewed as part of the Polio Oral History Project directed by Silver and funded by Harvard, foundations, and private donors, the people featured in this book describe what is arguably the most feared scourge of modern times.
