it's newsworthy when men make more than women, or when whites make more than non-whites; however, it's only a passing statement (in the vein of a full diclosure type byline) in which the opposite is true.

This article also fails to mention if the study controlled for types of law practiced by these people -- something that still persists in our "pay gap myth." A lot of the PoC and women that I know in law started out doing basically volunteer work, contract review, innocence project, public defender and environmental defense work, etc. While a lot of the white men went into patent law, divorce law, corporate law, etc. Basically higher-paying professions.

It's based on a survey. 6-8 years after graduation, white MBA grads report $94k higher annual earnings than Asian grads.

That's not what the chart in the article shows

This chart? http://thehustle.co/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/1x-1.png What does it say then?

That to me shows an income disparity of approximately 20,000 between white (and asian) men and black (and hispanic and native american) men 6 - 8 years after getting an MBA.

Oh you're right. That chart aggregates values from all the schools. But only Harvard Business School (mentioned in the headline) had a gap of $97,800.
