Allegedly, "Jetsam Marketing Solutions" office engaged in a controversial practice designed to increase the number of minority employees in the workplace. Human resources manager Allison Conte declared killing off one white employee on an hourly basis to allow room for candidates who represent a historically disadvantaged group. The imagined quote "While creating a more diverse organization is not something that happens overnight, we believe that at our current pace we can have the matter resolved within five days, six tops." ("Allison Conte". The Onion, 2018) provides support for The Onion's fake article by including a secondary source to include more information from the origin of the idea herself.
