From your link..

"So here’s the strategy. Since MONEY and POWER is their driving motivation, collect twice the amount of signatures and boycott their advertisers, which hits them in their wallet (like these people insinuated they would do), and they’ll do what networks do naturally: pull the plug because it’s no longer profitable."

Good point..

"First, I want to know what network I can pitch a TV show to about my regular American black family (blended from Michigan, Chicago, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas and Texas) that will allow me to call white people “racist blue-eyed devils,” “demonic descendants of evil slave owners” and “privileged cracka muthafuckas,” to name a few. Maybe A&E will allow it on their network (Oprah is too squeamish for that sort of thing). It can’t be on an all-black network, though. It has to be seen and HEARD."

I commented under the article through fb. and gracias!
