BET Fell Off Big Time

[KENNY DA COOKER]

Joint = 50%

Uhh NO

sorry to offend you

But this is not an EQUAL split

Oprah sold a significant stake of this netwk in 2017..

She only has just under 30% of her OWN network

Under the terms of the transaction, Discovery paid $70 million to acquire an additional 24.5% stake in OWN from Harpo, Inc., after taking into account net debt at the network, increasing Discovery’s ownership stake to more than 70%.

Discovery Increases Ownership Interest in OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network – Discovery, Inc.

Joint = 50%

Oprah doesn't own %50 of the OWN
And her 30%idnt just her

I miss the BET that had women in thongs, shaking their asses and then 2 minutes later there'd be some screaming preacher selling holy water and prayer rags

 

[The Special Man]

Man black media in general fell off big time

Crazy, BET was the 2000s and prior...after 2008 when I left home, it was the end of BET for me....nothing like getting home from school to watch Rap City and 106 & Park with AJ AND FREE....not them other nikkas who came after

We got some serious double standards.

Black people watch The Real World on MTV.....then complain about College Hill on BET. MTV did a realty show about white kids drinking and being promiscuous, but we call the reality show about kids in college c00ning.

BET only good for martin reruns these days

I usually fall asleep to Martin on VH1 then wake up and change channel BET they be rerunning it too

Who does the programming?

No more freestyle battles?

No more authentic,rugged, hip hop on BET?

Whenever I get the time, I flip through the channels to see what type of brain washing agenda these tv shows are pushing. BET plays reruns of old black movies or tv shows from the 90's.

Who owns this shyt?

Can they be contacted by viewers who aren't happy with the current programming?

Why even call it "black entertainment" if black people can't control the programming or content.

bet tried that shyt already and none of you was interested. the last straw was the live feed of the milliom man march. after that, bob johnson could not find enough sponsors to fund quality program. remember the quad tv show;

 

[BezO]

What can be done to get them to change the programes?

Stop watching.
