When pressed about why he only included conversations with White men, he suggested that Black or female musicians didn\u2019t &#8220;articulate&#8221; enough for his personal interest.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When I was referring to the zeitgeist, I was referring to Black performers, not to the female performers, OK? Just to get that accurate. The selection was not a deliberate selection. It was kind of intuitive over the years; it just fell together that way. The people had to meet a couple criteria, but it was just kind of my personal interest and love of them. Insofar as the women, just none of them were as articulate enough on this intellectual level,&#8221; Wenner said.<\/p>\n<p>After the comments went viral over the weekend, Rolling Stone made a comment distancing itself from Wenner.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/musk-blasts-rolling-stone-claiming-cancel-culture-good-democracy-scolding-stone\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>MUSK BLASTS ROLLING STONE FOR CLAIMING CANCEL CULTURE IS \u2018GOOD FOR DEMOCRACY:\u2019 \u2018SCOLDING STONE\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Jann Wenner\u2019s recent statements to the New York Times do not represent the values and practices of today\u2019s Rolling Stone,&#8221; the magazine wrote in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Jann Wenner has not been directly involved in our operations since 2019,&#8221; the statement continued. &#8220;Our purpose, especially since his departure, has been to tell stories that reflect the diversity of voices and experiences that shape our world.
