“Jann Wenner, the founder of Rolling Stone magazine, is facing criticism for saying that Black and female musicians were not “articulate” enough to be included in his new book, which features seven interviews with white, male rock ‘n’ roll icons.

“The uproar over Wenner’s comments prompted an apology from the storied music journalist, and he was also booted from the board of directors of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation.

“”In my interview with The New York Times I made comments that diminished the contributions, genius and impact of Black and women artists and I apologize wholeheartedly for those remarks,” Wenner said late Saturday in a statement through his publisher — Little, Brown and Company — The Associated Press reported.”
