Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos has some regrets about how he handled Dave Chappelle's stand-up special, even though he still stands by Netflix's decision to stream the controversial act.
In an interview with Variety late Tuesday, Sarandos admitted that he"screwed up" the internal communication with Netflix's staff. He said he"should have led with a lot more humanity" when dealing with some irate employees who felt attacked by Chappelle's comedy routine.
"While some employees disagree, we have a strong belief that content on screen doesn't directly translate to real-world harm."Now, Sarandos told Variety,"of course storytelling has real impact in the real world" and that he would've"been better in that communication." "They were joining a conversation already in progress, but out of context," he told the trade publication."But that happens, internal emails go out.
