DEI For White Dudes -- Digby

Following up on the post below, I just wanted to flag a comment by the new MAGA extremist FCC chair Brendan Carr, discussing his new investigation into the ABC-Disney merger over their DEI policies. This is what he said:

“There are some concerning indications that they may have been discriminating against employees based upon their race, their gender and other protected characteristics all in the name of promoting DEI.”

He’s done the same to Comcast.

I think that’s a very good concise explanation of the blackmail that’s going on in corporate America. The people who have spent decades defending the prerogatives of the private sector to discriminate against anyone they choose are now threatening private corporations with government actions if they don’t agree to get rid of their anti-discrimination practices. And they are using the 1964 Civil Rights Act to do it. It’s diabolical.
