Roland's BLISTERING Deconstruction Of Paramount's IDIOTIC, FAILED Attempt To Sell BET |Roland Martin
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 авг 2023
- Paramount notified bidders late Wednesday night about its decision to conclude the BET Media Group sale process, said a person familiar with the decision who was not authorized to speak publicly. The person said the company determined maintaining a heavy stake in BET creates more value for Paramount than any of the proposals after consulting with financial advisers.

This was an amazing segment. I’m 35 years old and grew up on BET. By the time I was in college and graduate school I became enthralled with the black sector of reality television. I don’t watch nearly as much now and would actually prefer more of a balance. The anti intellectualism within our community and society as a whole is baffling. I just want BALANCE.
Very well said… I couldn’t agree more. Some ratchet is OK but not all the way across the board.
💯%...
Say it 10x for the people in the back‼️ I remember back in the day BET played Baby Boy every day all day as if that was our anthem for probably like a year straight 🤦🏽♂️💆🏾♂️ I was like who authorized this…there are other options 🤣
I do too this mess they showing now women in there 40s and 50s fighting and acting stupid too much I don't mind some drama but we need more good shows bet too I watch alot of old shows I grew up to mtv needs to do better too 😮😔
@sidneya.4330 I know right 🙄
I'm a streamer, got rid of cable years ago. Saved over 3k! Cable TV is a thief! Tried telling people this years ago but no one listened. So I'm making sure I share the heck out of this! Thanks for posting!👏🏾
You said you got rid of cable.May I ask what are you currently using?
@@andrealawhorn2549 I download free apps for local news stations on my phone - with the smart technology provided on these devices, I can then cast it to my television- local public access television can be access through the internet, and many TVs that are sold today comes with some kind of television programming with options to download apps like Netflix, Prime, RUclips, Apple, Sports channels, etc., The options are endless. I find the programs to even be better than what cable provides, plus you're only paying for internet service. One last thing, when you purchase a television, look on the box to see which apps can be downloaded. Hope this helps!
I got rid of cable too in 2019 and I'm so glad I did!! The cable companies are nothing but theives.
I already had smart TV's but wasn't really using them the way they should've been.
I just learned from friends to get the highest speed of wifi that I could and then we all started sharing apps. I have some I pay for, Apple TV & Sling, but others I get from my friends. If I see that I'm not using an app, I just cancel or pause it so I'm not wasting my money. I'm saving about $230 a month by streaming vs how much my Comcast cable bill was!
I wish I had cut the cable cord sooner!!
I have a friend that has cable and I'm like why tf you still have cable but his wife just sits around the house watching it. So I guess that's the reason. She's a whole ass bill. But why pay for the milk when you have the cow at home😂😂😂
Streamers are hiking their prices collectively and those “I gotta have them all folks”, are paying more than cable.
Thank you!! It’s ridiculous how fast they run with unverified nonsense. Thank you for staying true to your standards of truth and due diligence.
This directly correlates with ESPN letting go of so much on-air talent this Summer as well. Linear television is a sinking ship that's clamoring for relevance in a digital world. Kudos to Roland for being at the forefront of new-media. Really inspiring.
It’s a boomer technology in a world where millennials are having babies.
I’m with the lady wearing the cap, 95% of my TV time is watching “RUclips” for the same reason…news, sermons, music, etc ⭕️
Same. That’s what I choose to pay for, not cable
Good information comes from most of the RUclipsrs love the truth that the media tries to hide
Yep,100%. Only time I've watched cable in years (have people in the house that want it), was when I was in the hospital for 2 days last week. I've been getting Hella educated on black history over the past few months among my other VARIOUS interests. A lot of black centric News like Roland Martin, Dr Richey, and Phillip Scott, along with different viewpoints on different, mostly black, issues that are discussed by tik tokers that RUclipsrs grab together into compilations.
@@rerebrook5057 Going through the biggest changes in both American and International media ever. The old mid/late 20th Century TV and later Cable business is now officially dead. PS I am with Lena. YT is my main streaming site now as well..
I love ❤️ you tube
Damn Roland called us out about supporting. I have to admit that im always sitting here saying...preach roland....but i wasnt sending him them greenbacks. So, today, i put my money where my mouth is and cut cable and became paying customer for Rolands channel. Keep up the good work brother.
Same
Roland is a loser.
❤ but as of Today ❤
I will start donating too
Asante sana. I don’t use cash app. I now have the app primarily to support Roland economically.
Thank you Roland for your expertise. We need to continue to support black media.
That's why I "LOVE" listening to Roland's reports! He lays it down "No Holds Bar!!!!"
❤❤️🔥❤❤️🔥❤❤️🔥❤
This is what I’ve been saying for years. No one wants to fact check before spreading foolishness.
That's because they want to be first. The time it takes to do proper research and fact check someone else might break the story.
I really don't blame the ppl who's spreading foolishness, I blame the ones who are gullible..

Seems like you are of many spreading right now.
Roland, your expertise on this topic is unmatched. Please continue to offer this kind of content and business education to us more often. My hat’s off to you.
I don't know about unmatched but he certainly has a mastery of this stuff and a talent to make it plain like a good preacher! This was a very informative episode and the essence of it applies to many other things!
Absolutely 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
You really think this liberal puppet is brilliant don't you😂
I used to like listening to this roland guy I thought he was very entertaining till I did some research on this guy and I found out he is a industry plant he is a illuminati Freemason Greek letter Lucifer Aryan Secret society all the above because they are all on one agenda he has a master and he has to do his well with their mouth they do a lot of talking but with their hands there is no action all he wants to do abstract all the money from the so-called dumb people who just like to be entertained Ask him what has he done for his people financially he is part of the beast system be careful who you let inside your mind because that is what controls you are you going to renounce your fraternity @rolands.Martin😅 don’t follow this guy just let him entertain you I know you’re with the 6god 🤘🏾 I pray you return rolling before it’s too late because you’re leading all these people down the wrong path with your platform
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME
!¡!¡!¡!
1000x
%🤩😜🥳agreed sir🫡
Thank you Roland!!! I am beyond irritated with bloggers and other media outlets who do not fact check.
90% just repeat what some other outlet said. Internet is wildly inaccurate.
But they changed their mind. Not that the offer never existed
Thank you for covering this and for CALLING OUT THE HORRIBLE IG MEDIA COMPANIES!!
Man I’m so Glad Tyler Perry didn’t fall for the bait and buy BET for an absurd amount … I also too thought he already purchased it several months ago . But I’m glad he didn’t get stiff armed.
MR. Tyler Perry is a business man- I'm sure he'll make BET more entertaining and more profitable, that's why they don't wanna sell the entire company. They know that money is gonna come rolling in and they want to be able to run to the bank and deposit those HUGE Checks. I would pay them double just to be the sole owner. They know if you're willing to do that, you got a master plan and they want to be a part of that 🙂.
Cable made the huge mistake of not allowing people to choose their cable package with a basic channel package and a la carte channels. Also, the reruns and constant rate hikes and billing issues were just TOO MUCH of ridiculousness.
I cut the cord a very, VERY long time ago because of those things and have NEVER regretted it!!!💯
Thank you for the education and information Roland.
I haven’t had cable since 2013. I was going to get basic cable for my mom since she moved in with me. They want $60/mo for a bunch of shopping channels, B movie, old westerns, and church channels. I got her a fire stick instead now she has more channels than she can watch.
I cut the cord in 2019 and wished I had done it sooner!
I was worried about buffering while streaming but w/the high speed wifi its not been an issue.
Our cable bill including internet with Xfinity was $153 in 2019... now? It's $268 minus $30 cuz we qualified for a program for poor people. We're in the middle of cutting the cord right now.
@@angelabaker2024 That's crazy! Think about the money you will save!
@@angelabaker2024yesssss, get rid of it. It’s not worth it!!!
This was an amazing segment. Was so NEEDED. Hope the population has listened, listening and paying attention. This week I will donate this week. What an education! Thank you!
This is one of the best segments that I have watched on your show, fully listened to, and really sought to ingest. You have convinced me of the importance of supporting you financially, not that I didn’t get it before but coupled with understanding the nature of changing times regarding digital content as you explained I now see it as a duty. I have learned so much from this segment. I have to go back and watch it again, probably more than once. Thank you for all you do Roland Martin. Now I know I have to put my money where my words are!
Let me add also thank you to your guests for their valuable input! And lastly, I really heard for the first time how much you care about your people. It’s the first time I really listened and heard.
Thank you for the lesson didn't know Bounce was white-owned.
Roland, some of us are on fixed incomes and can't support you with money, so we tune in, like, and comment to let the movers and shakers aware that the audience is watching Unfilleder.
Thanks for your comment. I can’t contribute much either but I always hit the like button.
@@agelessbeauty9136fact! I’m on a fixed income but I was already watching Roland and it was solidified when I found out a couple of relatives were watching as well. I dropped Satellite and haven’t looked back especially when I found that I can prepay for streaming Mostly all the channels for less than half of the cost probably less than a third. Smh.
That figures-even though MLK, Jr. & Andy Young -claim to own it! Byron Allen-snatched up “the Grio”( I thought) But they do seem to have a different “flavor” - & seem to have just as many ( or more) “main stream” shows on there! Just like when BET was sold-it changes things & Blacks seem to go back to “Square One” !!! Just saying!!!!
Thank you, Mr. Roland Martin, for the continued analysis of the issues we need and MUST know about.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Damn, Roland laid out a clear case for Black media, now the rest is up to us. I will be donating to the cause.
Just too bad Roland Martin is not a real news journalist on a real News Network who's going to really listen to him
@@AtlExpressRoland not a real new journalist…you sound slow😂
You watch it black people will fall for anything 😅😅😅
@@arthurtreadwell4241 Not saying much about all those white fool traitor Trumpers now, is it?
@@PA-zt6xu why are you trolling and making a comment on his channel! You sound super extra dumb…
First of I'm a white senior male who finds discrimination by any ethnicity offensive and backed by ignorance.
I appreciate and give respect to individuals such as yourself that inform and educate people with factual truths. Unfortunately or schools & colleges have failed miserably in that which has led to many of the problems including racial discord. Again I thank you and please continue to educate us with the facts of the world.
I have never watched any of the Reality shows. No housewives, no Kardashians, no Big Brother back in the day. I absolutely stopped watching television for 7 years. I cut the cord as well. No cable. Now I am 100% streaming. I watch tv now with intention.
Thanks, Roland. Another amazing master class. I've made financial contributions to Roland Martin Unfiltered since day one. I wish more Black people would supported your work. So needed.
Yes, this was a much-needed reality check that not all that you read or hear, especially on social media is true. Even by so-called News network channels.
Maybe a black show, because forget distribution. We are not the majority. Whatthen?! Programming. Like a music record. IT APPEALS TO EVERYONE. PROGRAMMING TOOK A DIVE WITH IT. WE HAVE TO LEARN FROM EVERYBODY, BUT IT STILLCAN BE CALLED, BET?!
Gotta agree with that...
Is it ENTERTAINING
ITS A GIMMICK. EVERYBODY IN THIS WORLD HAS LEARNED WE COME UP WITH THE JAM!? BASEBALL CAPS WORN BACKWARDS?!
I ENJOYED THIS SEGMENT SO MUCH. THANK YOU ROLAND FOR EDUCATING US.
Agreed 👍 !
If it is possible, we need to show some gratitude with a few dollars.
Same here ♥️
👍🏽👍🏽🫶🏾
Same!!!🙌🏽
I learned about black viewership when I was an undergrad majoring in broadcast journalism in the early 80's. Your information is accurate.
There it is. Preach truth into ignorance and shame a fool. Need You bigger and louder.💪💪💪💜💜💜
I remember 20 years ago the conversation in the cable industry was about how the landscape was moving toward a la carte. Customers no longer wanted to burdened with paying exorbitant fees for a bunch of channels they never watched. They wanted to pick and choose. Streaming allows customers to do just that. Bob knew to get out the game while the getting was good. He got his $3billion and Paramount ain't getting that amount for it now. LOL
FACTS!
It's too much FREE TV to have cable, growing up I had 4,5,9,19. Cut the cord ✂️ ✂️
Thanks Roland! I’m sick of these untrained, non-credible “platforms” putting out garbage and calling it “breaking news”. Yes consumer behavior has changed and streaming is the move when it comes to media but putting out garbage and saying it’s a win for “the culture” needs to stop!
Your talking about the Roland Martin channel the most non credible putting out fake news all the time crying and whining no justice no peace

In 45yrs I have NEVER really liked Roland Martin. This video turned me around 180°. I have subscribed and will financially support. Although we do not often agree on a great many topics- particularly socially and politically- THIS is the way information should be disseminated to the public. Master class; much respect.
Paramount definitely tried to pull a fast one! Buying cable networks and trying to make a profit in 2023 is WILD. Streaming took over years ago.
RealTalk....they don't want BLAck people to own any network! So of course their going to have a high price
Taylor perry smart so they knew this
I just wonder if Bob johnson would have sold it to them- back in the day????? Or he just wanted certain people to have it?..... Is he uncle clarence's bruh????? Just asking!!!!!!
Hmmm popPP
😂😂😂😂😂😂
See this is why this show is so important I thank God for the Black star network. Roland Martin unfiltered is the ONLY reason I know as much as I know. It’s like Black history 2.0. CONGRATULATIONS ROLAND ON 5 YEARS
No one white or black has given me as a black writer the courage to write about my people and our ❤problems as has Roland Martin. He is the second Malcolm X of the twenty first Century. Few are willing to sit at his table to confront the issues he confronts no matter who he or she is. His name was listened first because he speaks fearlessly. Those who shy away from him knows this as a fact.
I haven't watched BET since high school. It's been trash since the 2000s. Black movies and shows are always about the same old thing, no mystery, no thrillers, or horror, just crime, s**, and drama. I hate that it is that way. It's like we haven't learned to think or imagine anything outside our own experience.
Crime isn't "our" experience. It is however what media would have you believe. That image didn't come about until the 1970's as a way to dirty the black public image after the Civil rights victories. Before that the image was either a domestic servant or harmless waiter, field hand or doorman.
@kjhnsn7296 I'm talking about movies like Boyz in the hood or Belly, where they are drug dealers. Not the way the media uses the false ideology of black people being criminals.
I’ve always wondered that myself…why we don’t do other genres of movies like horror or sci-fi. We just seem to do comedies and dramas. I know I ain’t the only black horror film junkie out here. Jordan Peele directed the movies Us and Nope, both of which I loved. We’re getting there but slowly. I look forward to the day a black film maker, using a black cast will make a film as creative and thought provoking as the movies Memento, Inception, The Machinist, Triangle or The Black Swan
@chococat746 I love horror too! It's my go-to before anything else.
I stopped watching ,BET over 20 years after the Johnson family sold it.
I love Roland because he appeals to my soul, and he brings receipts. As long as he continues doing what he does, I will be listening.
Yep. I love his passion! And his very high standards.
Thanks Uncle RORO. You have really set the bar too high for most people/communication companies. If a person doesn’t have ur channel in their top 10 subs……they must do so today. You teach, you entertain, you chastise the bad news and then you tell the truth behind the crazy news.
Bro ..
Memories ...
That Stool T-shirt made my day ...!!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Amen, Dr. Carr!!!!! It's time to support Black-owned networks!!!! I love this network. Before COVID I never knew about your RUclips content, but I am more educated about my race and our experiences around the nation because God led me to your network. Blessings to all of you. Thank you for your hard and dedicated work.
There's a line in Malcolm X:
THAT'S TOO MUCH POWER FOR ONE MAN!
I'll leave it right here. That's why they wouldn't sell to one of them.
And I’ll leave this right here, you need to listen to what Roland said over again. They didn’t want to buy
Exactly! They want it in white hands. Agreed white people
Do not want blk people to control a propaganda machine.
@@blyt5046 Not only that but there's plenty of black investors sitting on more than 3 Billion, it's just not a good investment right now. Only dumb ass Elon fell for they okey doke but he got money to burn I guess. I still don't think he will hold X (twitter) for too much longer, and he will still be selling at a net loss.
Malcolm X was a damn hypocrite 🤦🏻♀️
@@blyt5046😂😂😂. Facts
This is why I DO NOT watch a lot of TV. My dad told me watching TV makes you dumb and as a child, I NEVER wanted to be dumb. My dad conned us into NOT watching TV. Smart man.😂
I'm sorry watching TV don't make you dumb if that was the case billions of people would be dumb
I must applaud the presentation of this topic and the content of the discussion among the four of the presenters here!
Please continue the good work!
I have to add that the RUclips app on my phone has been my primary source of digital media access for the last few months or so since my huge flat screen TV has been having technical difficulties. Even then, I was only accessing "over the air programming" like PBS shows & local news programming or wifi accessing material with my 'Frestick'.
Powerful commentary, Roland. I plan to be more Supportive financially in Black Media. Like so many others, I shedded Cable years ago and the only reason it's in my home now is because my Condominiums association purchased a deal for the owners. Many older viewers are not savvy enough to switch to Streaming so they will keep a pulse beating for some cable companies for awhile. I'm also a senior however, I am also techno astute. God bless you!
I’m paying $326 per month for cable tv, I’m about to cancel all that crap and do a fire stick or something 😳
Fire sticks are great. Lots of free movies etc and rentals.
Everything's free
Cut 📺Cord✂️
Read a book.
Think how much more money you would have if that 4k a year for cable was saved or invested. I have similar issue😔
Thanks to my brothers and sisters ❤️ 💕 💓
You definitely are a voice in the Black Community that keeps it 100 and always tells the truth no matter the criticism, that is a real journalist and patriarch of news.
Oh, man, after hearing that you weren't going to wait for somebody to put you on, and instead, created your own network, you've not only earned my subscription but my respect as well. Salute.

So deep what you have put on the internet about black people. Thank you sir S Martin for your job on opening the eyes of folks not only in the USA but also in the rest of the world 👍🏾🙏🏽
Roland you are right and I am guilty of consuming your content and not making a donation. That stops today. We need to have more education and news from you and others like you and you guys need our support!!!
Thanks Roland Martin for factual news reporting. Your media integrity reveals you care about your viewers, therefore you provide quality news reports on your media platforms.
I guess Roland haven’t heard of inflation.
Great Commentary, Mr. Roland!
ROLAND IS A GOOOOOOOF BALLL.. THE BLACK AUTHORITY IS CORRECT ON THAT.. WHEN IT COMES TO MISLEADING BLACK PEOPLE ANYTHING GOES AND NO AMOUNT OF CASH EXISTS.. JUST THE ANTI BLACK AGENDA.. AND TYLER IS A SELLOUT
3:26 😊
I will start contributing
I remember when you broke down all of what you are saying back when you decided to exit TV one! You said you weren't getting what you want at the level you wanted ❤ Class in session once again ❤ You didn't like being restricted ❤And you envisioned your own program to widen and benefit black people ❤ Opened my eyes to the black experience in being on television 📺
Thank you Roland for claritying and explaining the business of the business.
Thank you Dr Carr for discussing the news shows of the past and the need for Black news media today
I also thought Tyler owned the network. It was great to think BET was going to be Black owned again. Cable is just too expensive. The more they go up the more people will leave. Yes, I hate the bundle because I don't watch all of what they're offering. Also, it seems they're tracking what we watching, they seem to take your favorite to put it in another package/buddle allegedly.
Thank you Roland for your brilliant conversation and spreading valuable knowledge about the false deal about Tyler Perry buying BET. I'm like you I hope he does buy it for real. I cut cable off 5 years ago!!
I don’t want to be forced to support channels that are hostile to POC.
Hell streaming going Up these Netflix HBO Max etc all show the Same mess
Fact which I why I cut satellite. If I want to watch A network for a few months then watch a different network I have the flexibility to do so.
@@taiwanarnold5927fact!
43:55 I was just saying this very thing to my husband last night. SM has this way of force feeding us nonsense even when we keep telling it not to recommend certain things. They are becoming the #1 place to get your news so they now have a major responsibility to make sure to promote more creditable stuff. But like Martin said, so many are just regurgitating info that they got from someone else.
I thank God for giving us Roland.🙏🏽
A key component to news just like we do in IT is validate and verify. Without that anything on google is not fact . Secondly as my black IT professor used to tell us that irrespective of what industry , follow the money , follow the money 💴, therein lies the answer and the powers that may be ! Thank you Roland, with you I’m good and when I hear stuff, I know who to check with ! By the way, you did not wear that T-shirt 🪑! 🤣🤣😅
Thank you, Roland for the breakdown. Also, thank you to your esteemed guests for their input and feedback.
3 billion! I rather buy an professional sports team than BET. But it’s clear they didn’t want a black man to have it so let’s go up another billion.
😊
You got that right.
Exactly
No, they don't care if a Black person owns BET. They thought that all these black billionaires will get so caught up in owning a "Black media outlet" that they wouldn't do their homework and figure out how much it was really worth. In other words, they thought they were dealing with some stupid MFers and they learned, no, they're not. Lol! Another satisfying racial moment!!
Wow!!!!! Roland Martin gave everybody some good game in this vid. Salute 🙏🏽
Roland we have no one out there doing what you do, The way you do it.
Paramount has lost their damn mind!! And, the stockvis in the toilet!! Don't think so!! Byron, Tyler and others should come up with their own black network....its time!! 🤔😏🤞🏼
I wish that they would 😊
Trace, its time we leverage diaspora cash in all its 4 widely spoken languages. cos if channels can be en Espanol and Ingles .
Byron has his own network
There always Nubian network.
Awesome and much needed information/education on media/advertisement and Black -African American consumers! I too, find myself watching RUclips more than cable. Outstanding analysis!
@Rolandmartins40 👍🏾
I watch RUclips more than TV itself. All of it.
Very informative segment. Nothing surprising, except the extent, the disparity that occurs in large business dealings or something as small,(not small to the people this happens to), as the appraisal of your house going on the market.
I just posted $50 to Roland and will do more when I can. I am certainly not rich or have a lot of money but he speaks the truth and we need more of this.
You're 1000% on point! Brilliant analysis.
😂 the only people Roland roasts harder than BET is his own graphics staff.
Bro super disrespectful. I'm a former AV guy. It's not that difficult to build the chemistry/system to make things flow seamlessly. That's on him fr
I was thinking the same. He seems difficult to work for.👀
😂
😂
Control room!!!! Pull up the graphics! Come on ya'll......come on! Lol 1
I dig the hell outta Greg too, for several reasons. He's extremely intelligent and educated and he loves books. He also puts me in the mind of Kwame Ture and he's very militant and radical. We need a billion more Gregs....
Thank you Mr Roland Martin. It seems people have lost the ability to think logically or how to research. You have schooled your viewers well.
This platform is better than TV. I watchd TV One and Roland Unfiltered and I appreciated both however Roland Unfiltered is his and that makes all the difference in the world.. Please keep doing what your doing roland and lets make sure we support him with our dollars... He gives us a gift every time he comes on and shares knowledge with the masses. Lets show we appreciate the gift by supporting him and his staff's hard work.
Didn't the TV one network cancel Roland Martin for low ratings
A lot of people, including myself, thought Bob Johnson either sold out, or was forced to sell out when he sold BET to Viacom. It looks like it worked out for him business wise.
No! Bob Johnson sold BET due to his affair with Debra Lee & then his wife walked away with 1/2. 👆🏾
He was going through a divorce and he was tired of the struggle and wanted to diversify. His wife Shelia remarried and founded Salamander luxury hotel in middle burg Virginia.

If only our people would emphasize & encourage READING--like they do watching TV!....WOW--READING IS FUNDAMENTAL! It broadens your horizons/keeps your mind alert/helps w/spelling & it is “food” for the mind!!!!!!! At some schools-the reading levels - does not even move the graph-that’s how bad the reading scores are among a lot of our kids. Make sure they can read -before you spend all that $$$ on those fancy proms!!!! Just saying!
A lot of us don't know the concept of selling while the stock is high, we talk about ownership, but a business man understand a hundred percent of nothing is nothing.
I am now a contributor because I appreciate you informing us as black Americans what effects us. Thank you!!
This was good. THANK YOU, Roland!
Drop the mic! As usual, we can count on Roland to tell it like it is. Such fascinating, important information. You taught me so much today. I will continue to support you through Bring the Funk. Thank you for your dedication and for all you do for us.

Thank, Roland, for your hard work, compassionate and nuanced commentary. Respect!
As a media guy and a supporter of this show, this video is my defining moment. Roland made me realize my worth and my value as a media channel and new media. "I'm not going back to TV, this is TV right here-Roland) I was thinking I'm just a RUclipsr, didn't know I was TV for a lot of people already. I just need to keep building my TV channel. TLP Sports Club. Thanks Roland.
That's why reading is fundamental, Thank you for the facts Mr.R. Martin

Thank you as always Roland for everything you do, how you challenge the systems, report with accuracy, and provide calculated, deep, un-biased opinions about our world. Thank you!!!!! ✊
Amen 🙏🏾 so glad to be supporting this great program 🥰
Don't give up!!! We need your deep expression and evaluations!!!!!!!
Brother Roland you got me laughing so hard , when I saw the icon printed on your T-shirt . Hilarious indeed .
The chair is hilarious! Never forget our new weapon!

😆 🤣 😂 😹
Blame the broadcasting companies. They kept rasing prices, which caused cable companies to pass that increase to the customer. The customer can no longer afford the costs and canceled. I never thought I could survive without cable. I cut the cord a long time again and don't regret it.
One of the realest and rawest shows. Journalism with integrity for our people.
I hope people REALLY study what you're saying. Thanks for challenging folks to interpret the news with an investor mindset rather than a holding a consumer perspective. "The business of the business." - by Roland Martin (we need the book sir).
Yeah, Netflix, Hulu, prime video, all the streaming services I have been big disruptors for cable. A lot of businesses are now about to be disrupted even more things to AI artificial intelligence. So if you invest in the stock market before you buy that stock do you research how that business can be potentially downgraded due to this new opensource technology.
Yes. He totally gave a master class. I listened at least 3 times. God. Bless him
Saundra, and that is the reason i ran the ads on this on sveral devices. we should defo get financial knowledge
Mr Roland Martin has an uncanny ability to break complicated stuff down to a 2 grader's level of comprehension. He's one in a billion thoroughly researched journalist. Thank you ever so much for sharing this information with me Roland. I'm done with cable...
I got you Black Star Network!!!
Thankyou very much!!!
I've been a supporter of Roland Martin almost a year. Continue 2 bring the true funk. I love in depth knowledge and getting 2 the truth ❤❤❤
25:00 re: BET, I think it's different when a black owned MEDIA company is sold to white people because of the fight we have experienced all along of being positively portrayed in the media. One of the first things that happened when BET stopped being black owned was that they cancelled all the news shows. And the new programming I come across on there (not counting reruns of sitcoms) doesn't necessarily have positive black characters, and that includes the Tyler Perry dramas.
👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Like Roland said: BET cancelled the news programs long before they were sold, because "nobody was watching."
Thank you Roland for always keeping it💯👑👍🏾🔥🏆
This broadcast was very needed and informative, nuff respect!
