I don't think it's as big of a problem as the Sad Puppies make it out to be, but it's there. I think they provided a few examples in the article, probably more if you dig around the net a little.

Sure. I think an expanded audience would inherently lead to expanded pool of nominees for the awards and I think people will vote for what they identify with rather than a story that's been told before. And that's how the genre grows.
