Well, I don't know why the downvotes but I think this is hyperbolic. I saw the slide, it is crass and bad taste and I don't defend but what you're saying about this as evidence of some terrible culture because someone didn't see this "months ago" is just hard to even take seriously.
So in your mind, presentations that are not made 6 months in advance and are not thoroughly vetted means there is a bad culture problem at a company and not a place where diveristy can flourish? That's just ... I wouldn't want to be anywhere that you would find ideal; it sounds like a horrible place.

However, demanding that all speakers give their talk internally a month or two in advance, if only for the sake of technical correctness/typos/etc., seems like a very reasonable minimum.
