Jann Wenner's Removal from Rock Hall Board Sparks Controversy

Jann Wenner, co-founder of Rolling Stone magazine, has been removed from the board of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation after making controversial comments in an interview. Wenner's forthcoming book, "The Masters," was criticized for featuring only interviews with white male musicians. He stated that women and Black artists were not "articulate enough" or didn't "measure up" to his historical standards. Wenner later apologized for his remarks. The decision to remove him from the board comes amid widespread criticism of his exclusionary views and the lack of diversity in his book.
