Les Lester's Chronicle, Message Board: Re: Black Owned Media companies disappearing?

You know, GM. My media person sent some good stuff out to the Black press, recently. But guess what, the DEI cut backs diminished the Black advertising revenue coming from corporate America.

They're too weak to deal with cutting-edge issues, at this point.

More depressing news...

"There was once over 100 Black-owned Media Companies but now we're down to just 39."

But wait, i'm just picking up on this bit of info but that report came out Aug.2021.
We can assume that there are now more Black-owned Media companies, but I suspect not!

Plus, we need to be concerned about the quality of the work at those remaining 39 companies. To be honest with you, even white-owned Black sites like TheRoot & TheGrio, the mediocrity is pronounced. Just saying.
Ooops, TheGrio is owned by Byron Allen, but then, if he dies, his white wife owns that shit. Lawwwd
