CBS has now committed to using 25 percent of its production budget to produce TV projects dedicated to “BIPOC” topics — an acronym for “Black, Indigenous, and People of Color” — and will increase the number of minorities in creative roles.
The network has promised to flood its production companies with new minority hires, to produce minority shows, and movies, (Snip) not only will CBS dedicate 25 percent of its script-writing budget to what some assume will be woke programming, the media giant said 40 percent of its writers’ rooms on all programs will be populated by non-white writers. The network further promised that half the writing staff of every

They have already committed 24 percent of their production budget to made up stories and doctored videos that they pass off as true and factual. So no real change.

Other than a golf match or something I haven't watched CBS in 20+ years. I wouldn't even know where to find it if it weren't for talking channel search.

Started to watch a CBS Sports boxing Live from Mississippi the other night.
It was so filled with black supremacy garbage I had to mute the sound.
Since there were no crowd sounds, it was no great loss.

We watch a little Fox but never ABCCBSNBC et al. CBS can hire all minorities if they wish. Of course, they will inevitably have to fire one or more and then they get sued....guaranteed.
I was a small businessman before retirement and talked to lots of small businesses. They all said that they would never hire a black person for fear of a lawsuit if they didn't work out. I guess the big corporations have the wherewithal to handle the lawsuits but the rest of us smaller guys had to protect ourselves.

The only place you don't see black representation is on the home security system commercials. Not a black burglar in sight. Seems pretty racist to me to have nothing but white criminals.
It is ridiculous how crazy the liberals are going to placate BLM. There are plenty of blacks on all forms of media. They are already disproportionately represented as compared with their percentage of the U.S. population.

They are supposed to renew 'Blue Bloods' for next season but I dread what they will do to the story lines.

Network and local news stations have basically eliminated white men from all anchor positions on TV. The weatherman and sport casters are still men on many stations, but increasingly, they too are disappearing. So I think the 25% ratio was passed many years ago.

That sucking sound is CBS ratings circling the drain.
I watch TV to be entertained and perhaps learn something. I dont watch tv to be preached at or told Im a facist racist.

I don’t know about the rest of you but I am beyond sick of hearing about race. All these media outlets, politicians, corporations and Hollyweird “stars” have no idea that all of their rants and all of their efforts are having the opposite effect of what they intend.

I have two degrees in communications and will never watch these dedicated propaganda networks. They have been insufferable for a generation and now are a disaster. I have not watched even a snippet of their vile content and never will again. I will not be propagandized by Marxists and anti white racists.
I am offended with the racial and political propaganda in commercials and now mute everything. Twelve percent of the population is in ninety per cent of the commercials and we are to think they portray the true America. I chose not buy anything these networks advertise when possible. Do you label me racist when it this is forced into my brain every waking minute? I will not be managed!

A dying media, turning to racism to be relevant.
Most people don't even have cable anymore. They rely on streaming services and the internet. ABC, CBS, NBC will cease to exist as we know in 10 years.

So aren't the LGBTVWXYNPRQVL+ folks and the Feminazi's going to demand equal time?!?!?!?!?
How woke will CBS have to get before they have no viewers left because all they have on are woke freak shows that nobody will watch?!?!?!?

If CBS is not there already, that decimal percentage of 1 in their ratings is going to feel great. I already don't watch shows that highlight minorities, gays, transwhatevers and idiots so my life will not change.

Not a bad business decision. The woke but still asleep will watch regardless of entertainment value for about 2 years. About the time they get kicked out of Mom’s basement and meet reality.

It's not enough CBS. You need to give people of color the entire network. Not 25% or 40%. It's all or nothing. Pay yo' reparations, CBS.

I cut CBS out of my life when I got back and found out "the most trusted man in America" led the msm in heading up the new world order by engaging in the Big Lie. The Walter Cronkite looked the people of this country in the eye and lied when he reported that we lost Tet when it was a major military victory for us. From that point on the msm, Times, Post and all the rest joined forces to jam that Big Lie down the throats of America and in particular the politicians. They used it to disgrace and unnerve this country to gain control over the narrative, as they say They continued to use one Big Lie after another ever since to continue to control the "narrative. And it is what we see today. Only now they have taken it to a new level by trying to take down a duly elected president. In doing so they exposed the their true nature and they are desperate at this point. The power they have gained through the use of the Big Lie (the name Goebbels gave it) is immense. They are the domestic enemy.
They did not count on a President Donald Trump and the true Americans standing behind him. Prays for PT and the USA.

It will be interesting to see the ratings on the CBS forced-feeding. George Floyd never realized that he’d have this much power. After he killed himself.
