Caesar: Still mad about the "Barbershop" controversy? Huey: Of course! WE're on the eve of war, and our so called leaders are whining about a movie! You know what it tells me? It tells me Jesse Jackson has too much free time on his hands, that's what! Caesar: Does he even have a job? Huey: If he wants to be involved in Hollywood so bad, he should do something to stop Eddie Griffin from working.
During 9/11, instead of some shred of coverage, BET kept playing those booty shaking, ignorant rapper videos…Nearly every other station decided that what they were showing at the time wasn’t as important as a terrorist attack…not BET…In other words, if you were watching BET at the time of the event you would’ve have had NO IDEA what was happeneing until you changed the station…something like that gets coverage…Kinda validates all the black media hate huh?
