BLACK REPUBLICANS DISSED YET AGAIN "TV One, the cable network aimed at African-American viewers, will cover Barack Obama's nominating convention but is ignoring John McCain's. The network is telecasting live, prime-time coverage of the Democratic convention in Denver Aug. 25-28, followed by 'TV One Live: DNC Afterparty,' with political and social commentary from panelists. TV One is available in 43.7 million households, or about 40 percent of the nation's TV homes. … 'We are not a news organization,' [the network's CEO] said. 'We are a television network that is designed to celebrate African-American achievement. That is why we are covering this convention. If Hillary (Clinton) was the nominee, we would not be covering this year's Democratic convention.'"

Plus, being that the Republican party is the one that does their best to get black people kicked off the voting rolls every time an election comes around they shouldn't be all that surprised.
