Font Size Liberal NBCUniversal News Group has decided to give back by launching an initiative it said would address systemic racism and inequality by — you guessed it — singling out individuals based on race and other identity groups. Leftist cable communications company Comcast put out a press release Jan. 14, 2021 discussing which “underrepresented groups” are the priority for NBCU News Group’s new “multiplatform journalism training and development program.” In the press release, Comcast announced that the new initiative, called NBCU Academy, would be part of the “multi-year $100 million commitment to help address systemic racism and inequality” that was announced back in June 2020. Another part of the leftist outfits plan included announcing its Fifty Percent Challenge Initiative, announced in July 2020. The initiative challenged NBCU to become 50 percent people of color and 50 percent women.
