Two selfies. Two classes of summer interns. Two entities, Comcast and Congress. There can only be one winner.

This isn’t an official competition, but we are here to deliver a verdict.

First, some background.

Last Friday, Speaker of the House Paul Ryan posted a photograph of the Capitol Hill summer interns to Instagram. The picture drew immediate backlash for the very apparent reason that nearly everyone in the selfie is white.

Three days later, Jasmin Senior, Comcast’s intern program manager tweeted a very similar photo, featuring Comcast’s chief executive officer Brian Roberts. The one difference? We’ll let the selfie speak for itself.
