This is Racism

can you imagine if this was a purely white station? Oh wait, we dont have purely white stations!

Thoughts? To me, this is 100% racist. Covering news based on the color of someone's skin. I guess they dont believe African American's need to hear both sides? Know it or not, the Arfican American media and church is doing everything in its power to stop Obama from becoming president. Maybe because it will put them out of business?

NEW YORK (AP) -- TV One, the cable network aimed at African-American viewers, will cover Barack Obama's nominating convention but is ignoring John McCain's.


TV One will provide coverage of Barack Obama's nominating convention August 25-28.

The network is telecasting live, prime-time coverage of the Democratic convention in Denver August 25-28, followed by "TV One Live: DNC Afterparty," with political and social commentary from panelists.

TV One is available in 43.7 million households, or about 40 percent of the nation's TV homes.

Obama's nomination as the first black to be a major party presidential nominee is an historic event for African-Americans, so it's important for the network to be there, said Johnathan Rodgers, the network's president and CEO.

"While viewers can get coverage of the convention from any number of networks, we plan to cover the convention from a uniquely African American perspective," he said.
