B.E.T.(Black Exploitation Television)

Talking about what Viacom owned B.E.T. means today and what it once meant to the African American community. Today, B.E.T. is NOTHING but a vehicle to showcase the 'dumbed down' and ignorant sector of entertainment, at the expense of anything with 'substance'. This so-called network does NOT represent interests & tastes of the entire Black community as many are led to believe!

I have 2 teenage nephews living with me and they know that BET is not allowed on in my house and i really will go off if they ever sneak it on. Everybody who visits my house knows that these stupid reality shows like 'For The Love Of Ray J" and "Braxton Family" are not allowed on my tv. Let your daughters watch the Braxtons and they are gonna grow up with all the wrong values...especially the one called Tamar. These stupid shows are destroying our youth and making them dumb as rocks.

@DaOrigTruthSeeker I thank you for watching and sharing your great comments. You are to be applauded for taking a stand against what B.E.T. does to our youth on so many levels. B.E.T. is TRULY a gutter network and anybody that embraces it needs to wake up ASAP.

Tell it like it is. I love a black man who has the integrity to speak the truth knowing that others will be quick to criticize him. Keep up the good videos and nice music.

Again, it's a sign of the times. Even Jacqie Reid who was a respected BET News Anchor five years ago is now on "Pepa"'s VH1 Reality Show "Let's Talk About Pep" seeking Male Companionship and sharing with the world that she's never had an Orgasm!

David K Far-El wrote a book about the shit that goes on at BET.... He also happens to be one of my friends on Facebook.... He was a producer for Rap City, & he also produced numerous other programs such as Dave Chappele show.... Check him, & his book out

@jnyerere: You have great wisdom for your age and i trust and hope your parents are very proud of you. I hope wherever you go the others will follow your wisdom and example.

@DaOrigTruthSeeker I am 21 years old and I keep telling my peers out here that TVONE is a good example of a channel that is truly for the entertainment of black people. People don't have to settle for BET. And if you want music, there's CENTRIC which is also a great channel. BET needs to be banned now because as you can see my peers are out sagging jeans and spending half their paycheck on clothes and shoes because of the garbage they see on BET.

I stopped watching BET a long time ago and now TVOne is my choice. BET is for people of the lowest intelligence. BET is designed to dummy down our people and teach our children how to be professional idiots. When BET took Bev Smith "OUR VOICES" and Ed Gordon off the air i knew it was gonna go down to the gutter. They never have anything real on it. People who support this crap need not complain. Viacom wanted BET just for the purpose of feeding our youth stupidity around the clock.
