Plans to Boycott BET’s Upcoming “Hot Ghetto Mess” Show - Part 2
July 23rd, 2007 by PG Chic
This post is an update from my July 16, 2007 post on the “Hot Ghetto Mess” show. The latest from BET is that they will change the name of the their ridiculous show from “Hot Ghetto Mess” to “We Got To Do Better” removing some of the ties from the tasteless HotGhettoMess.com Web site created by Washingtonian Jam Donaldson in 2004. The show will still premiere on Wednesday, but all eyes will be on what sponsors are actually going to associate their names with this foolishness.
The WhatAboutOurDaughters blogger, BET’s most vocal critic, had a lot to do with the recent turn of events. Read today’s post “‘Hot Ghetto Mess’ is Hot Ghetto GONE” — great job WhatAboutOurDaughters!
