So, let’s get this right.
Bob Pittman has started a Black Lives Matters radio network as a front to cut jobs initially from 15 stations with more to come.
Hiding these firings behind a movement that aims to attack systemic racism only emphasizes it more.
This is an example of pandering that only a white dominated media company like iHeart could try to get away with.
Their new Black Information Network’s flaws are already exposed and what’s worse, you can almost smell how iHeart and the lemmings who follow them are going to jump on the BLM movement to advance their own goals.
Details on iHeart’s plan for BIN are downright embarrassing and may draw the kind of ire against the entire radio industry as an unintended consequence.
