Yes, that Byron Allen.
Take that, Putin! We have the best suing lawyers in the world! Greatly helps our economy, people suing each other non-stop...what could go wrong?
But we can’t sue the Chinese?
He leans conservative, as I have heard.
An Uncle Tom, married to a white woman, worth $800 million, bitching about racism in America
I’m so tired of “people who annoy you”.
I see what you did there.

Billionaire media mogul Byron Allen buys $100 million Malibu estate
Welcome to the $20 Big Mac.
maybe because their customers don’t watch that crap???
Free advertising for McD’s! They can now save 1.6 billion and not advertise with anyone!
I grow weary.
I admire his earned wealth, but I think less of Byron Allen after this move. It seems like extortion to me. Who says McD has to advertise on your stations? That is not racism. A burger and fries snack is not a necessity of anyone’s life. Maybe some demographs have more disposable income than others, so that is who the sell to. McD is an internationally known brand anyway. They don’t have to advertise to be patronized. I hope they fight this.
McDonalds has an advertising budget. They are in the business of making money and do not give a damn about the racial characteristics of the stations they advertise on. They want to get the most return on their advertising dollars. If they are losing money by not putting enough advertising dollars with black stations, they are stupid. You do not build a worldwide company like McDonalds worth 143 billion dollars if you are stupid.
McDonalds will win this suit. I hope the countersue for big bucks.
PS
Most of their stuff on their menu is okay except that damn slime sauce they put on their hamburgers. I always get a fish or chicken sandwich.
Right?
I am amazed anyone still watches The Weather Channel.
It was cool in 1997. Today? Not so much. If you can’t get better information, quicker, from the weather apps in your news folder on your smartphone, you suck at the smartphone & Internet.
If I owned McDonald’s the I would just announce that I was shutting it all down. No more McDonalds and no more of its jobs. The public would get the message of the damage our corrupt system causes.
yeah, but there's no ROE for the ads
We all do.
Weird case. They advertise enough on Black media to get the customers they want. Then they advertise on non-Black media to get more customers (who also may be Black). No point in oversaturating Black media with McDonald’s ads when they’ve achieved their goal.
