Friday, January 23, 2015 | 2:45 am EST Grant NBC News Launches Website For Black People… Good Idea? By: Grant (Breaking911 Newsroom) January 22, 2015 | 10:06 PM
Ahhh, yes.
The day has come, where black folks and white folks don’t have to read news from the same website.
NBC news has a new website and social media accounts geared towards the African-American community.
According to a letter from the editor:
“NBCBLK covers stories by, for and about the black community. Our product is meant to elevate America’s conversation about black identity, politics, and culture.
We share positive, solution-based journalism and report on challenging issues that communities of color face today. NBCBLK taps NBC News journalists around the world to tell these stories, and we curate reports from NBC News platforms — Nightly, Today Show, Dateline, and local affiliates among other NBC outlets.”
What do think? Friday 23rd of January 2015 02:46:00 AM
Separate but equal?
So, I guess profiling is in vogue.
about the black community
Will that include stories similar to “White Girl Bleed a Lot” and other atrocities committed by blacks?
Isn’t BET black owned?
And who owns NBC BLK.
See, the white man keeping the black man down, yet again.
The advertisers will promote the “Gibsmedat Steal of the Day.’
Nothing spells racism like an all black anything. “Black Enterprise”, “Jet”, “Ebony”, “BET”. Ask NBC how something like this is beneficial for race relations or for blacks in general. The response will be...”whites have been catered to for a long time.” Then ask them how so? Crickets.
Does anyone have a list of sponsors yet? I have no problem contacting them and giving them a piece of my mind.
folks lookin' in a dept store window at TV's .... blacks only ... whites only
or
newspaper stands ... stacks of newspapers ... blacks only ... whites only
Someday I'm gonn'a get and learn photo shop

Double Standard on Parade
Yes. I’d say it’s targeted propaganda designed to continually activate a particular audience base.
“Good grief, I thought this was satire.
Separate but equal network, or black separatists network?”
NBC Launches SEGREGATED NEWS SITE Just For Black People
11:05 AM 01/22/2015
Eric Owens
Strange and deep dissatisfaction with America’s long, arduous period of racial desegregation has pretty obviously beset NBC News.
The once-proud, once-relevant commercial news organization has turned back the clock on race relations by at least a half century by launching a real, non-satirical news website that funnels news about black people into a single locale.
The website is called NBCBLK. It launched last week.
There’s both a Twitter account and a Facebook page for the fledgling sitelet.
The Facebook page describes NBCBLK as a news site dedicated to “elevating America’s conversation about black identity, politics & culture today,” notes Downtrend.
The current state of NBCBLK is sort of like a destitute, emaciated, delirious and intellectually stunted version of The Root.

coloreds only?
I'm so confused.
I demand a truthful, unbiased version.
Perfect time to set up a troll account.
