The networks have formally committed to adjusting their anchor rosters and diversifying their daily programming content. I am now shifting focus to monitoring these commitments to ensure the promised changes are implemented by the production teams.
We Want More African American Hosts and News Anchors!
This petition is started by Warren Ballentine, America's #1 Truthfighter and Truthfighters all over the world. www.thetruthfighters.com
The Truthfighters are requesting that CNN, MSNBC and FOX add more African American Hosts and News Anchors to their daily line up.
We are also requesting that more stories are aired on issues effecting the African American Community as well as inspirational stories honoring African American History Makers and young new positive roll models such as community leaders, small business owners and non profit leaders making our communities better with their daily sacrifice.
We will stop watching the networks that do not make an effort to expand their African American Programming, hosts and news anchors.
The African American Community has a buying power exceeding 800 billion dollars a year and that makes us a much needed consumer for your advertisers and your ratings.
The petition reached 100 signatures today. I am now drafting formal letters to the executive offices of CNN, MSNBC, and FOX to outline our specific demands regarding anchor representation.

Need more positive stories out of our communities. Media only focuses on the bad stuff and it is draining.

Its time these networks look like the real world. Representation matters and we are tired of the same old faces every single day.

Finally someone said it. My family stopped watching cnn months ago for this exact reason. Too much bias and zero diversity on screen.

Agreed. Tired of the same stale opinions being repeated over and over. Give us some fresh perspectives.

Hire more black anchors. Simple as that. If they dont want our money they can keep their old lineups.
