PBS announces a new diversity initiative for production talent and staff

TheWrap

Under the new guidelines, PBS says producers will have to “create and share their Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) plans for all new agreements, describe how their project aligns with PBS’s DEI principles, and disclose representation data for production team members for both above-the-line talent and below-the-line positions.” PBS also announced it will spend $11 million on new diversity initiatives.
