Byron Allen’s  Billion Lawsuit Against McDonald’s Can Proceed

A recent ruling by a federal judge has paved the way for media entrepreneur Byron Allen’s $10 billion lawsuit against fast food giant McDonald’s to proceed to trial. The lawsuit alleges racial discrimination by McDonald’s, claiming that the company engaged in racial stereotyping by not advertising with Black-owned media outlets.

United States District Judge Fernando M. Olguin made the decision, acknowledging that it was a “close call” but ultimately ruling that Allen’s claims should be heard by a jury. The lawsuit centers around Allen’s Entertainment Studios and Weather Channel being denied advertising dollars by McDonald’s, with the fast-food chain allegedly relegating them to an “African American tier” with a significantly smaller ad budget compared to its general-market advertising.

Allen stated, “We have overwhelming evidence against McDonald’s for racial discrimination,” citing previous lawsuits by Black executives, franchisees, and their global head of security. He also called for the resignation of McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski, accusing him of sending racist text messages about Black and Hispanic people.

In response, McDonald’s issued a statement defending its actions, stating that the decision to not advertise with certain media outlets was based on business strategy and target audience considerations. The company emphasized that it is prepared to demonstrate the baselessness of the lawsuit during the upcoming trial.

The lawsuit was originally filed in 2021 and has since sparked a contentious legal battle between Allen and McDonald’s. As the case moves forward, both parties are gearing up to present their arguments and evidence in court.

Overall, the ruling by Judge Olguin sets the stage for a high-stakes legal showdown between Allen and McDonald’s, with the outcome potentially having far-reaching implications for how companies approach advertising and diversity in media partnerships. Stay tuned for updates as the trial progresses.
