BET Used To Be Own BET Robert and Shelia Johnson and If I'm Not Mistaken They Sold I In The Late 70' s and Early 80' s 😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲. If Black People Would Stop Watching BET and Television Stations That Supposed To Be Own By Black People They Are Enough Black Millionaire In America Own Our Television Radio Stations.

Tyler Perry was trying to buy BET and they quoted more than it is worth. And he refused.

Several black entertainers financial groups and notable Byron Allen tried several times offering to pay a third more than the asking price for NBC. He was blocked. Tyler Perry tried to buy BET almost twice for what they were asking and he blocked it. They don’t want Black people to own Media. The narrative promoted on various networks are designed to prevent narrative. A certain group control the narrative. Then you continue to impact the belief system, and you end up with a master perpetrator and liar in chief !

Negativity at its finest when BET was sold from a black owner every one knew that was of color where the new owner was going to take the station to! We back in the day was like dang why did the black owner do that to us sold us out! He said no this will be better but we knew nope!

Shuler King said the same thing. Black people need to get back to owning their own media. Maybe we can change peoples' perception of us.

Why do we need a "Black" entertainment anything? True entertainment doesn't need to be targeted to any particular race.

I’m glad you’re saying this so why are y’all so mad at us we don’t own nothing. We don’t come to your Son downtown. We don’t bother y’all so why I have so much hate for us. This place would be better if it wasn’t hate at all we all could just live whether segregation or not wanna be segregate among other people why people just can’t live every four years we pick a government that don’t give a fuck about us think about that. It don’t matter whether you write a black they don’t care about us.

damn...about time people start realizing this shit. they do this to try to lead us in a negative direction and to keep us divided. it's no different than them flooding the inner city black communities with crack! y'all need to realize this shit and quit hating because of skin color and come together. that's the one thing they don't want. if you're gonna hate someone, hate the people trying to do this to us and the world.
