Godwin’s sudden exit came after CNN reported earlier this week that Debra OConnell, the Disney (DIS) veteran who was tapped in February to oversee ABC News as part of her portfolio, was conducting a review of her performance and had voiced dissatisfaction in private conversations with the state of affairs at the network.


Morale at ABC News has suffered significantly since Godwin took the helm in 2021, with employees frustrated with her leadership, more than two dozen staffers and others close to the network told CNN this week. The staffers spoke to CNN under the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the press.

I'm sure it won't change political bias, it's a step in the right direction

I don't know the particulars of this company, but something similar happened to another company I am familiar with, and these keys words are code for it (from the article) "Godwin, staffers told CNN, made several profound errors, including employing a hands-off approach to managing, not developing a strategic vision for the newsroom, eliminating the heads of the talent-relations division and appointing an inner-circle that alienated staffers, among a stream of other complaints".
A black woman was promoted to head a company division that she was not qualified for, and soon brought in all sorts of her fellow diversity hires based mostly on race and to cover for her.
Before you knew it, some of the people who lost their jobs or opportunities for promote revolted.

Whether people including white liberal women know it or want to say it out loud or not, when you bring in a "diversity hire", they tend to get rid of the white folks (yes that includes you white women as well) and their "inner circle" becomes much less white and much more black.
Heck look at NYC mayor Adams bragging about it after he appointed almost all black people as his deputy mayors and leaders to his inner circle. Where some of them qualified?
Probably.
But you know his primary criteria was diversity.
The link has a video of him saying it;

What would happen if a white person did and said the same thing?
