BET is nothing but a shell of its former self. No one takes that seriously. They’re as done as those after hours, bet at night music videos they used to show at 1;00 in the morning, back in the day.
World Star ... yeah, that’s another problem. But look at the demographic it “serves” and people who get off on that shyt. (Teenagers who think that’s the wave and brain dead adults who thrive off fukkery) People who are informed and enlightened are not going on there. The Root made themselves targets and we had names, contacts, key executives, writers etc. With world star being a public platform anybody and everybody can post a vid; which lets them use the same tired excuse that “it’s what the public wants” . economics 101- supply and demand. If people do the same thing- don’t fuk with it.. they would be gone too. I.e, look at OWN, there was no demand for that and it’s a throway station but it still exists for a certain type of crowd. For the moist and shea butters, along with older generation fans who think Steve Harvey is gospel to them.
