Byron Allen, one of America’s few Black media moguls, took President Trump to task for criticizing the media.
President Trump is known for lobbing the “fake news” catchphrase at the media in response to criticism of his leadership.
The media’s role is to “keep the bosses informed,” Allen explained. “The American people, we are the boss, we run it,” he said. “Thank God we have the media or else I think we might all be drinking Lysol right now, and we don’t need to be drinking Lysol.” Even though advertisers have cut back because of the financial toll of the pandemic, Allen is still bullish on the profitability of the television business. “We know, long run, it’s a marathon, not a sprint. We’re going to be fine. Everybody is going to need local news, weather, and sports. That’s just essential to who we are,” he said.
