BET’s Bob Johnson; Tesla’s Refunds; Target’s Makeup Counters
About this episode
In the wake of Pfizer’s positive vaccine news, markets are rallying on hopes of a light at the end of the pandemic tunnel. BET and RLJ Companies founder Bob Johnson is relieved by the news but looking ahead; he discusses the pandemic’s disproportionate impact on Black Americans, and shares his vision for narrowing the racial health and wealth gap under a new administration. Plus, Target has entered a deal with Ulta Beauty, Amazon is in hot water in the EU, and Tesla is making up for defective computers in some of its vehicles.
