Hudlin Leaving BET

[jefferson L.O.B. sergeant]

Given the state of the economy; Reggie saved a lot of money in lawn fees when the protesters eventually made their way to his home.

I kept WAITING for them to show up!  They never did.  I had so many plans for them!

Hahahahahahaha. Did you reveal those plans to anyone? Its possible the right Pastor Coates knew he was running into a disaster and kept his efforts confined to Maryland.

In all seriousness, in light of what has taken place on Wall Street today; if those people are still protesting outside of Lee's home they really must have carefree lives and live in communities that are absent of substantive challenges.

The protestors went away a while ago;  I think the idea of marching outside through a DC winter made them consider other approaches to the problem. 

But I agree;  I hope the presidential campaign is now forced to deal with real issues and not identity politics.

NBC buckling and looking to neuter Olberman and Mathews isn't a good sign but; hopefully people like Roland Martin can stretch the discourse with his new show on CNN and his panel appearances.

They may have to physically restrain Carville now as well. I hope he runs wild on these shows now.

Best of luck with your future endeavours Reggie.

Whenever that dude isn't writing about how much women are hos or how much gay people suck, he can really ring a bell.

Not a fan I take it?

I halfway think the guy's sexism and homophobia is an act. Cause dude sounds just like some of my divorced male aquaintences. That's probably the guy's literary selling point: he's the guy from around the way but with a degree.

I mean common sense would tell you that the difference between applying for a job as stiripper and applying for a job at the post office is the fact that the money's (presumably) better as a stripper and there's no multiple choice test to take either.

So either Jimi's online persona is an act or he's kinda slow.

I like ol guy e persona. He through me for one with the whole fight for your kid thing over Jordan's. As someone who is involved in a similar situation I think he has a simplistic view on the matter. But yea sounds like the bitter ex stuff drives him a lot.

"Lil' Kim: Countdown to Lockdown" and "Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is."

Such great works...such...>snif<great works...

This brought BrotherKomrade back, only Heyman and Blykyoda are left to pay their regards.

It's not like as if Reg is hurtin'. Maybe if he actually treated BET like a day job for real (i.e., I don't give a f*ck; pay me or fire me...) and not take himself and what he did there so seriously, he wouldn't have been a target by some us who supported him earlier on when he got there. Unlike our angry church goers, pseudo-feminists, and black neocon/closeted-black image fascists, some of us actually expected more from the man who was associated with Birth of a Nation and Boondocks. But I guess a suit is a suit, no matter how  no, actually, I guess he isn't one, since he's leaving BET, huh?

But really, I've been around my folk long enough to know that that statement from Lee is all BS. I guess we'll never know what was really squirming under that rock until some hungry-assed intern decides to go for a book deal.

Hey, good luck looking for that animated Black Panther series, all you RH fans!

Bless your hearts.
