"Minority Contractors Lose Preference At Pentagon"

"Minority Contractors Lose Preference At Pentagon": This audio segment (RealPlayer required) appeared on last Friday's broadcast of NPR's "All Things Considered."

According to NPR's description of the segment, "A Pentagon affirmative action program that benefits contracting companies owned by racial minorities has been declared unconstitutional. The decision was issued Nov. 4 -- Election Day -- so it hasn't received much attention. But the decision could mean the end of similar programs at all levels of government."

I had this post about the decision on the date that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued the ruling.
