Original Note:
Bloomberg did report this, but their analysis is flawed. It uses EEO-1 forms, which summarise demographics by headcount. The companies grew by ~323K positions & ~302K POC (302/323=~94%). Due to turnover >323K people would have been hired, meaning a smaller fraction of POC. https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2023-black-lives-matter-equal-opportunity-corporate-diversity/#section-methodology https://www.dailywire.com/news/bloomberg-flubs-data-for-bombshell-report-that-only-6-of-new-corporate-hires-are-white
