NBC News is looking to change up their newsroom. The organization has a goal of having a more diverse workforce, which NBCUniversal News Group Chairman Cesar Conde says is reflective of the audience they serve. This need for diversity is what led the company to create the “Fifty Percent Challenge.”
“As a news organization we have a unique responsibility to reflect the country and all of the communities we serve,” Conde said in an internal memo. “Simply put, we aspire to achieve two concrete goals: that 50% of our News organization employees be women and 50% of our total workforce be people of color.”
According to The Hill, the company employs roughly 3,000 people. Their news organizations include NBC News, MSNBC and CNBC.
As of now, women make up 50 percent of the organization’s workforce. People of color make up 27 percent.
So, to reflect all of the communities they serve, will 50 percent be conservative?
Okay, that’s the dumbest thing I’ve heard today.

So, just like the Democrat obsession with their VP criteria, all that matters is:
1. Black
2. Vagina
3. That’s it! Real qualifications are irrelevant.
Straight white males need not apply. Nor Christians, Orthodox Jews, conservatives, anyone who doesn’t believe in globull warming or any other libtard doctrine, or in other words no one but specially approved liberal protected victim groups. Good luck Whitey, you’ve become the new Irish. I don’t watch anything on NBC anyway, or CBS, ABC etc. etc. And anyone who believes in American exceptionalism.
The first step is to fire all the white management!
They’re interviewing BLM applicants. Black Left Media.
By weight?
Just sign Oprah…
I don’t think they don’t know what percent means.
13% black, even if you have to slice one.
I’ll give it a week before the marxist mob demands more.
50% female, 50% black, 100% incompetent.
“This is NBC!”
Such an hysterical, uncivilized network.

50% isn’t enough, it needs to be half.
What a time it would be for a real news network to open it’s doors.One that’s neither conservative or liberal but dedicated to the truth and deep investigative reporting. Fox may have been it but since his eurotrash prog kid took over Fox is moving slowly but steadily left and that opens a huge door for a Ted Turner type (not his politics but his daring) of real news to come forward.
I demand a set aside position for midgets!
But they are all of one homogenized mind.
I don’t watch CNBC 100% of the time.
I’m not a math genius, however something is messed up with that libtard equation. Seems men, especially white men would be outnumbered. This kind of evil inspired stupidity boggles the mind.
Maybe they’re assembling a herd of scapegoats to take the blame for their crappy ratings, and low viewership. Nah, they’re not that smart.
