It’s 2018, and bigotry is no longer something worth profiting from, at least not on network television.

The message here is twofold: Don’t come for Black women—especially a Senior US Government official–unless they send for you.

Kudos to ABC Entertainment Group President Channing Dungey, another African American executive, for this swift action on the part of ABC.
