So, what kind of outbreak would there be if there was a White Entertainment Television? There would never be one, because there isn't the need for one. There are so many shows made that feature white people on television, but there's not that many featuring blacks are there?
And second, I wonder why nearly everytime there's a discussion on this topic, BET is almost always brought up,.

Is BET exclusive to black talent? (I dont know for sure, but it seems like it)
If a group of blacks want to form a program that represents blacks in a proportionate rate, that's another thing. Making it 'blacks only', well...I dont see how that makes things any better.
And I bring up BET because it's most commonly known, I use it as an example, not because I have a personal feeling towards it specifically.
