Default Wet

If someone were to create a tv channel called White Entertainment Channel (WET). Would this be considered racist. I am not racist don't get me wrong, my best friend is African-American but I always though WET would be racist and I am curious on your opinions.

Probably no more so than Caucasian College Fund, or the National Association for the Advancement of White People.

So Dostis, This must be an attack against Black Entertainment Television?
However, did you know that a White company now owns BET? Yeah it would
be racist considering the attack, and just because you have a best friend
who is a Afro-American what does that have to do with anything?

Everytime Whites seem to attack Blacks they always manage to
say......My best friend is Black (the overlay), and to me that's a
sneaky way of covering up racism.
Why not create a ALL White entertainment channel instead of
bitching about it? This way you have your WET, and we will
have our BET.

The point really is that all of this shit is racist.

laRaza, Meecha, NAACP, the congressional black caucus, etc.

It doesn't make sense to combat their stupidity with our own.

Someday these ignorant fuckers will sit down with a collection of MLK's works and possibly they will see that quote about the content of character not color of skin and MAYBE they will finally understand it!!!

but I doubt it in the short term.

Fen, the "Black Leadership" understands Mr. Kings quote only too well...

However, if they took it literally to heart, it'd effect their collective Bank Accounts.

You know what, fuck you! Your labeling someone you do not even know as a racist. Now you know as well as I that a 'WET' channel would never fly because it would be racist. And if scholarships were given to whites just for being white that would be discriminatory. So my question to you is 'Why is it not racist for the NAACP but would be for a white version?'

You pose a very explosive question. I think that most people would say that the other networks are the white networks. But since when do whites have a history day?
