Netflix Caving On Chappelle In 5…4…3…

[Michie]

Everybody get ready, Netflix is in the process of caving to Big Trans. From an interview Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos did with Variety:

On the eve of a planned employee walkout at the streaming giant — organized by trans and LGBTQ+ staffers, content creators and allies — Sarandos addressed numerous points related to recent jokes from Chappelle that have incensed the trans community and been labeled as harmful.

Stop right there. Those who walk out should be told by Netflix to keep stepping.

Netflix can't cave, they've become so big by being so diverse with something for everyone.

Ted Sarandos, the company's co-CEO and chief content officer, acknowledged he could have done better in terms of the Chappelle controversy.
In an interview with Variety Tuesday, Sarandos admitted he "screwed up" the internal communication with Netflix's staff, some of whom staged a walkout Wednesday.
Sarandos apologized for his communication, but told the Wall Street Journal that he isn't second guessing the decision to air Chappelle's special and Netflix doesn't plan on removing it.
"We have articulated to our employees that there are going to be things you don't like," Mr. Sarandos told the Journal. "There are going to be things that you might feel are harmful. But we are trying to entertain a world with varying tastes and varying sensibilities and various beliefs, and I think this special was consistent with that."

Ted Sarandos was being contrite . It only takes one prominent well known person to firmly say no and I feel this would start the shift. But these corporate heads have no moral compass and will say or do anything to keep the money flowing in.

Ted Sarandos was being contrite . It only takes one prominent well known person to firmly say no and I feel this would start the shift. But these corporate heads have no moral compass and will say or do anything to keep the money flowing in.

But is the money flowing in? Are audiences really gobbling up T programming? Are they even gobbling up any of the LGBtQWERTY programming?
