This guy is the ultimate grifter. Whenever he doesn't get what he wants he tries to sue for racial discrimination to either force his way into a company or to make money off them. Will pull a whole "I'm doing this for black people" speech then when he gets what he wants drops the whole act and goes back to employing nothing but non blacks and not giving back at all.

Disney has not expressed any interest in selling, but very interesting!

Of course Disney don’t have any interest in selling to a black man given Disney’s history of racist Mickey Mouse cartoons :mjpls:

This is just a foot in the door. Sure, he is black, but his wife is white, his kids are mixed and they will date and have white kids also, his money and empire isn't going into black hands or black people who need an identity in ownership in today's modern world.

What would be "great" and "awesome" is a black man with black woman woman and black kids owning a major outlet. Not a black man with a white mom, or a black man with a white wife, or a black man with a mixed wife. Black man with black parents married to a black woman with black parents, who have black children, no one gay, no one adopted, no one foreign, no one mixed. Then we can say we got here on our own without assistance. Then if they divorce or one of them dies, or the legacy gets passed it can stay black and not end up in the hands of someone white (again).
It's tough in a country when you're outnumbered 5:1 by the majority.

It CAN happen.....we've seen it with Boule bougie light skinned Blacks. They'll marry other people within their group and never marry white or dark-skin Black (usually). Definitely possible but it takes a concerted effort.

You have to marry Black but then somehow make sure your kids attend the elite schools while avoiding the white girls and then linking up with other elite Blacks. Marrying to combine resources and maintain the culture is a VERY upper class mindset that's tricky to pull off unless you were already born upper crust. Poor, working class and middle class marry for love like they've always done.

Never going to happen

Too many silent generation and baby boomers still are the only ones watching ABC, NBC, etc etc…

They will sell it to him in 2033 when its a dump of a network standing on one leg
But people be saying tv is dead NOW though. Why can’t he get it now? Btw you can’t kill free over the air tv completely because it’s the easiest way to get info out to people who aren’t 100% on the grid like a lot of us. Nexstar might be putting their hat in to buy ABC too by the way.

It’s because he is right….. They won’t sell to him because he is black….. They won’t even sell BET to black people, even when Byron matched that bloated ass selling price…..

Byron stopped being Black 30 years ago..he has a White wife and mixed kids, all his busines partners are White..he only uses his Black skin for profit, to complain to wealthy executives hes being denied opportunities because he's ''Black'' so he gets to buy networks..



So Diddy and Jay Z are the true black people? They married to black women with black children.

Jay Z basically told black people that we need to stop complaining and get off the NFL neck for their racism while they still being racist today. He did that just because he wanted to get a contract for his company.

And we ain't gon even get into Diddy.

I find this gate keeping of black to be interesting.

And I'm totally against interracial marriage. But im not about to say that man ain't black. I don't know his life and I don't know of any instances when he has c00ned to try to get ahead.

If he a c00n for having a white woman, then 95% of the coli is c00ns for lusting after white women 24/7.
