Former CBS executive: "CBS has a white problem"

Variety

"The company has a white problem across the board," writes Whitney Davis, who resigned as manager of CBS Entertainment Diversity and Inclusion in February, in a Variety essay. "Did you know that there’s not one black creative executive working at CBS Television Network or CBS Television Studios? Of the network’s 36 creative executives — all upper management roles that deal with content development, casting, current production, daytime and alternative programming — there are only three women of color, none black. There is not one executive of color working in casting at CBS. The one Latinx executive hired in casting last year lasted eight months. He works at Netflix now."
