No, I don't think you do understand what it is. First off, I don't appreciate you twisting my argument. I didn't say black folks don't want to watch a white man on TV. What I said was that black people are going to vote for Obama in huge numbers (and ALL polling data backs that up), and so aren’t interested in watching McCain on TV. It’s the same reason that die-hard Democrats generally don’t watch the Republican convention in as high a numbers as Republicans.

No you defended your argument by saying that they could not get advertiser. They could have got the same advertisers that the other networks got. That is why you were making racist assertions. The idea that advertisers would not advertise on black today, means that you made the assumption that because it was a black network, mainstream advertisers would not advertise on the network. That sounds pretty racist to me. I am tired of elitist like you trying to tell me what words mean.

No, I didn't say that at all. What I was saying was that advertisers won't pay for advertising during a time slot where there aren't any viewers. If the number of viewers of BET during a showing of the Republican convention is extremely low, advertisers will not spend their money to run ads during that time slot.
