It will be interesting to see what Viacom does with BET. I know the programming isn't much to talk about now, but if "we" weren't looking out for "our" own interests and images in the types of programs produced, it's hard to believe that others will show us any more consideration.
One of the few people doing a good job portraying us on TV today is your sister Yvette Lee Bowser, who did Living Single and For Your Love. But she's only one woman!
PositivelyAKA: I think Cosby tried to get a major stake in a network several years back, but faced a lot of hurdles and gave up.
Kitten: Until Cos or some other positive Black people can get a network going, we'll have to rely on PBS for the occassional non-mainstream shows.
