I have read several complaints about BET this morning. Needless to say that I agree with all the sentiments of these blogs and letters. However, the one thing in these letters and blogs that bother me the most is the fact that no one wanted to solve the actual problem.
The actual problem is that BET is not your network anymore. Its not run by you, You dont dictate the programming, and nor can you control the purse strings. So we can write them, cry to to them, go on a hunger strike about them, it won't move them a wit. The other fact is that BET make WAYYYYYY too much money making fools out of us. We continue to watch it, talk about them at work, write blogs about them. All we our doing is generate more publicity. Creating a vicious cycle, of BET using us and we being used. You get the picture.
So with that being said, there is only one way to combat BET. Make our own internet channel. That sounds really big doesn't, not really, allow me to elaborate. We have enough people on this network that, program, blog, design websites, network. All of us have access to the Internet, at work, home and mobile to put this together and do it well.
We have to understand that WE have to WORK on this OURSELVES. No one is going to sponsor this WE HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. WE can make this viral movement and we can start it right here, right now!!!
WHO IS WITH ME, LETS THROW DOWN THE GAUNTLET!!! TURN OFF BET!!! TURN ON YOUR COMPUTERS AND LETS GO TO WORK!!! CREATING A NEW VIRAL MOVEMENT!!!!!
