Comments on: Is BET Genuinely Trying to Be More Politically/ Socially Responsible by Broadcasting From The DNC? http://highbridnation.com/2008/08/28/is-bet-trying-to-be-more-politically-socially-responsible-by-broadcasting-live-from-the-democratic-convention/ Thu, 08 Jan 2009 09:20:26 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.1 By: Urban Thought http://highbridnation.com/2008/08/28/is-bet-trying-to-be-more-politically-socially-responsible-by-broadcasting-live-from-the-democratic-convention/#comment-70229 Urban Thought Fri, 29 Aug 2008 12:34:35 +0000 http://highbridnation.com/2008/08/28/is-bet-trying-to-be-more-politically-socially-responsible-by-broadcasting-live-from-the-democratic-convention/#comment-70229 I just finished listening to Terrance talk about voting on Big Boy's Radio Show. He stated that this is his first year voting. Saying that before he didn't believe that his voice could be heard, that he didn't feel that it counted. He now feels otherwise. So the picture is what it is. I just finished listening to Terrance talk about voting on Big Boy’s Radio Show. He stated that this is his first year voting.

I've been watching BET the last few nights. I've noticed all the coverage of the Democratic party. I couldn't help but think, isn't BET owned by Viacom? I don't care if the target audience is below voting age, it's good to see that somehow kids can get into it, even if not allowed to vote just yet. I was thinking the same thing.

I'm assuming that's what he's doing. I HOPING he's already registered. Good point about Viacom Zach. Well the photo is perhaps misleading. I’m assuming that’s what he’s doing.

You'd be surprised at the kind of "talent" that BET employs. I agree with you on this post, Juan. But I feel that BET can't openly support Obama as a whole just yet. Why? Because Viacom owns them, and almost all big corporations back the Republican party. I dunno. That's just me talking. What do I know? :) LOL@ Mike!
