BET-ting on Johnson? Not me.
Despite his dubious track record at Black Entertainment Television, the National Association of Black Journalists has endorsed Bob Johnson's bid for a new black-oriented cable network.
Richard Prince provides the details here.
Johnson, who owns the Charlotte Bobcats and whose mangling and elimination of BET's news and public affairs offerings are well-known, says this new venture is a different propostiion -- that his next network will, in fact, concentrate on news and public affairs.
I don't believe him.

I don't believe Bob "steve urkel" Johnson either.

Thus far his actions certainly have spoken louder than his words.
