I would like to see the org chart
Not surprised.
He hired the person for the job.
And yet these people come for Oprah, he’s no better!
He probably hired the white dude because he was better qualified and will probably get bigger business deals. Good job!
He's the kind of Black Man who's only Black when it suits him, if you know you know SMH
I think you're absolutely correct 💯
And this guy was appointed CFO of The Weather Group (Weather Channel), a subsidiary of Allen Media Group, not AMG itself. AMG has a Black CFO, Chris Malone.
This is truly an unfortunate piece by @DemetraKaye. I was initially going to jump on the usual bandwagon of bashing a so-called Black Billionaire, but then I decided to do some research on the Allen Media Group and found this, There are six senior executives that report to him (Allen) directly, and out of those, two are Black (including a Black Woman, Sydnie Karras (VP and Chief Accounting Officer) and Chris Malone (CFO Allen Media Group)
one Indian, Mark De Vitre, a Lebanese woman, Janice Arough (President of Network distribution), and of the two so-called White executives, one of them has been with the AMG for 27 years, Andrew Temple.
And for the record, in addition to providing greater visibility to HBCU athletics through his (Allen’s) business initiatives/negotiations, his lawsuit against Comcast helped bring about visible changes and initiatives that have provided greater access and visibility for minority business owners in the media and entertainment space.
This is an unfortunate piece and the least you could do is not be intellectually lazy and do even the slightest form of research.
Where’s the white women? Byron’s yet another negropeon !
Why the hell do you care who he hires as his executive, all this black woman is doing is gossiping on YouTube about this black billionaire hiring a white woman.
😢
Malcolm X said it a long time ago – Buffoonery !
Is Trump going to hire black African American if he wins the 2024 presidential race? He had only one, Ben Carson in his Cabinet
Yeah, he tried to get black people to rally all around him and y’all “didn’t”…as usual, when we ask our own people for support, they go “huh”🤷🏾♂️, and when we go to the other side for support, y’all go crying “trader” …make it make sense. (Should’ve rallied around him)
Karma
A lot of wealthy black people do this. I worked for one, but was a woman.
Byron Allen Folks has always been a token. This guy has always been a SELLOUT!! He was the token guy on Real People.
He's stupid and the next year the company will be the white man's watch and see
He got someone who can do the best job
Anybody surprised? 🤔
He's very astute, he hired whom he thinks is the most qualified.
He's a very unfunny raccoon 🦝
WOW! Thanks for sharing🙏🏽
Stop hating on Byron Allen! You should be hating on the New Three Stooges, Clarence Thomas, Byron Donaldson, and Tim Scott 😎
I think black folks should stop attacking other black folks who are accomplishing their goals and be happy and supportive of their successes…SMH
What do expect I expected nothing less
Well. Slow down lady. Hold it Just like when a. Black person applies hi for a job and sees problems in being hired White. People do it too Byron ain’t trying to get sued. Relax all that and the EEeOC can look. elsewhere for trouble 🚦🤩✅
You said the truth
Conservative boy, never amaze many.
That's why I never support African-Americans that speak out only when they have felt the hand of Injustice. 🌄🦍☮️🖤
While I do not know deeply or personally Byron Allen, about his choice I can say he is free to hire the most competent person in the room no matter his skin color. Not everything should be about race. If he was looking for someone with a specific resume with a different background, he is free to hire a white person if he indeed he is the most fit, the most competent.
