Johnson to Viacom in 2004. We naturally think of Oprah and her Harpo production and OWN network.
We often overlook and do not mention Cathy Hughes. In 1979, Hughes founded Radio One, and with then-husband Dewey Hughes bought AM radio station WOL 1450 in Washington, D.C.Her fortunes began to change when she revamped the R&B station to a 24-hour talk radio format.
Radio One went on to own 70 radio stations in nine major markets in the U.S. In 1999, Radio One became a publicly traded company, listed under the NASDAQ stock exchange. As of 2007, Hughes and her son serves as CEO and president of Radio One, and Hughes as chairperson. Hughes is also a minority owner of BET industries.
In January 2004, Radio One launched TV One, a national cable and satellite television network which bills itself as the "lifestyle and entertainment network for African-American adults." Hughes interviews prominent personalities, usually in the entertainment industry, for the network's talk program TV One on One.

I really wonder sometimes about is it really the media or the things people do. Black people just look disproportionally horrible in the media when it comes to crime reporting. I have done some research and found an endless supply of newsclips ana few youtube channels just filled with news stories like these. If you were to check out fox affilate memphis or channel 2 in Detroit, you would think only African-americans commit all the crimes and nothing positive happens in these cities but crime. The youtube channel Nightwing TV is nothing but a collection of newstories about black women who commit crimes and some of them are just so heinous you couldnt think anything but negatively about the person. I posted a few of the numerous clips and if you want to see somthing positive. I have a few positive stories in one of the first post on this blog. The majpoority of reporters covering stories were not people of color, but at the same time. the people in the story did exhibit stereotypical behavior so tell me what you think, just watch a story or two.
