Diversity diva
-- Broadcasting & Cable, 8/21/2000
NAACP President and CEO Kweisi Mfume joined other minority leaders last week in welcoming Mitsy Wilson to FOX as its new senior vice president of diversity and vowed to keep an eye on the progress that the Big Four networks make on their groundbreaking diversity agreements.
Wilson was feted at a breakfast reception on the 20thCentury FOX studio lot in Los Angeles (Aug. 14). The breakfast was also attended by a handful of congressmen and others in town for the Democratic National Convention.
"We look forward to working with you, and we hope that at this time next year, that the reforms that will be chronicled and reported by members of the press will suggest that there has been clear and meaningful progress at Fox," Mfume told Wilson, who was formerly Times-Mirror's top diversity executive.
