SAG-AFTRA, which represents thousands of radio and TV newscasters, today called on the broadcast industry to create more inclusive and diverse newsrooms

.

The Coronavirus Pandemic, the resultant devastating economic impact, and the Black Lives Matter demonstrations have exposed inequities in health care, jobs, criminal justice, and schools. We remember the Civil Rights era – more than 50 years ago – when companies explained their lack of black, brown, and other non-white minority staff members by claiming they could not find any who were qualified.We urge employers, now, to actively search, to reach out to schools, organizations, and associations that connect to the wider communities in order to recruit potential applicants.
