Somebody please answer this question.

1. Why does every successful African American morning show have an obviously sounding and looking gay man to on their show? This is insane.

Frank Ski, Tom Joyner, Steve Harvey, Rickey Smiley.

Come on Brutha’s, these gay characters eliminate thousands of listeners. I will not listen to your shows with my teens in the car. It is a horrible example and is no where near mainstream African American culture.

C’mon guys… We can’t take this show personal or serious. It’s pure entertainment. I must admit, it’s as bad as I expected but it’s funny and I looked forward every week to seeing how these girls would clown themselves. The goal of these shows is to have a large viewing audience which they were very successful in doing. They had to get a cast that would capture peoples attention and that’s what they did (Ne Ne, Kim, Sheree). I personally can’t tolerate Sheree but I still watch her for LAUGHS. I got a kick out of that “Dreadful” fashion show…LOL.

Mike Hunt, I thought I was the only one that felt that way. This is why I listen to the other stations, and then Frank Ski is the worst because he/she portrays himself as a woman that is ridiculous. But then again I am suspicious of the co-host anyway.

“Why does every successful African American morning show have an obviously sounding and looking gay man to on their show? This is insane.”

Answer: By adding these characters, program directors or producers are directly marketing that niche.

But its not just African-American radio shows, family-time T.V. that are plagued by this technique. I have had to try and explain it to my 6-year old why are two men called “married”? Just yesterday on MTV’s Parental Control, I saw two elderly women, referred to as his parents, trying to give away their son….Tila Tequila… So the list goes on. And you can focus on African-American shows to fuel your ire if you desire, but other shows are likely to creep in the back door of your kids.

The media is inundated with creative people, other writers, and producers that generally attack our moral boundaries that effectually produce guilt when we reject this lifestyle depiction in media. This marketing tool has opened the door to our psyche, and especially the psyche of some of societies children as a means of non-sexual procreation.

This non-sexual procreation (I think I made this up, right now), is how gays/lesbians increase their numbers.

And despite the spirit of your question, obvious you do not like African-Americans by singling my group out, the technique will have a negative impact on our society as a whole.

Its just money, STUPID?

I stopped watching television for four years because I felt like I my IQ was being lowered by the constant bombardment of reality television. I recently started back watching it and I have realized that I really didn’t miss much. Shows like “the real housewives” have the ability to misrepresent but I am sure for some they do entertain. I just hope that the children that may watch this show do not try to emulate the ridiculous behavior of some of these “real” women.

Furthermore, for those that think this is classy television. Please review what your definition of class is. Because if reality TV is considered class then we are in a whole lot of trouble.

All,

I know the original thread was about the “Housewives Of Atlanta”. Actually, I am not sure if the two unattached females count. I.E Sheree and Kim.

Anyway, I am going to vent a little bit more about our Morning/Afternoon radio.

Why during every interview do our African American hosts continue to play that beat music in the background? You can hardly hear the interview. I don’t know if Michael Baisden or Frank Ski is louder. It is so irritating. I turn the station even though I generally want to hear the topic. The background beat music is just too loud.

Also, I can’t watch the Frank/Wanda tv show at 11pm because Ms/Mr Sophia is so repulsive to look at. I know plenty of real Sistas that feel the same way.

We are more socially conservative than our radio hosts would have the general population believe. Just a vent.

Anyone with reasonable intelligence watches TRHOA purely fo entertainment reasons. It’s purported “reality” television, but we should all know by now that much of reality TV is scripted. It has to be in order to generate high ratings. Less and less of what producers choose to air is spontaneous, and much of the “reality” quotient winds up on the cutting room floor.

I can watch this show with enjoyment because I look at it as entertainment and not a true representation of real “housewives.” If Bravo wanted to do a show profiling real housewives in whatever city, the ratings would be a disaster because the majority of real housewives don’t carry themselves in such a manner as the ladies of OC, NY, and ATL.

That said, there are glimpses of authenticity in NeNe and DeShawn, who I think are the truest represntations of real housewives. They appear to have wonderful relationships with their husbands, to whom they’ve been married to for more than 10 years. That’s a long time to be married in this society. DeShawn had Eric’s back when they were both broke and eating Ramen noodles and Hamburger Helper in college. Gregg is very supportive of NeNe, and I could see that he’s not happy with how much wine she kicks back. If your wife embarrasses you in front of your social circle because she’s had too much to drink, and you can still support her every effort, then that’s love and it’s genuine.

I agree with another poster who said that now is not a good time to portray these reality characters on their shows indulging in such excess. However, some people don’t mind seeing that because it’s an escape from their own lives. Plus, you can’t begrudge what someone else has despite the nation being in an economic crisis. I just hope that Eric and Ed were smart with their income and planned for the day when their respective careers are over. It makes me wonder if these people really need so much house and those luxury vehicles and employees? It’s smart to downsize and still live well.

Last thing, DeShawn should tighten up on the mission of her foundation. In a society in which nonprofits are asking for charitable donations to fight juvenile diabetes, breast cancer, domestic abuse, the spread of AIDS, homelessness and hunger, DeShawn’s plea of helping girls build their self-esteem isn’t going to fly. I mean, it’s admirable, but that need would be very low on the totem pole after a host of more dire issues plaguing our nation and the world.

And whoever thinks that Duluth is part of Atlanta is clearly not from Atlanta, either. Kim is sweet, but who didn’t laugh and feel sorry for her when she tried to record her song? “There’s a tightrope between me and you … ” Come on. Nene’s song was 100 times better. At least she can carry a tune! Sheree is just a plain old mean girl. Nene was def. the most entertaining. And DeShawn? Nice girl, but seriously needs to get a clue. Lisa seemed to be the most normal of the bunch. They really should mix the next season up by getting some Buckhead Betty’s on the cast or at least some true Atlantans.

I do wish NeNe would tone it down because the women are role models for young women. I do hope Bravo will add more housewives to the show so that the world can see there are rich different kind of class women in Atlanta.(Preferably women who do not cuss and are used to having money and show more of a Obama first lady class style) NeNe if you are reading this please stop cussing so much. There are grown people that are offended by your loud cussing. I wonder what it would be like to have the Orange County women meet Atlanta women?

okay, so i stayed up past midnight watching the RHOA marathon and cracked up! I was blown away by the amount of money these women waste on their pet projects. I thought it was hilarious that DeShawn, who has no experience as a fundraiser and didn’t seek out any advice, expects to pull off a major event in less than three weeks and with no real game plan. I agree with Sheree that someone should have pulled her aside and told her that it wasn’t going to work. BUt I also thought it was poetic justice that Sheree’s fashion show was a train wreck. She talked so much junk about DeShawn not knowing what she was doing, yet she decides that because she likes to dress nice she can, therefore, be a fashion designer. I liked the way Michael Knight tactfully suggested that she learn about textiles. What a slap in the face to the people who actually study their craft to have someone who thinks a fistful of dollars makes them an expert. Sheree’s face was CRACKED at that nonfashion fashion show and she got what she deserved. Kim was and is the dumbest person I have ever seen on TV. This chick is numb from the neck up. I wonder how she’s paying her bills now that she and Big Poppa are done.

This program is a real tasteless and a disgrace to the black race and mainly black women. If I were these ladies I would not allow anyone to televise me and show me acting like a bunch of fools. NeNe is soo ugly and looks like a transvestite that is why she is always keeping up mess. No, she is not happy with herself there is no way she could think that she looks good. I hate to talk about her children, but her older son is not a good looking young black man and needs to take those earrings out of his ears and try not to bring any attention to his face. He looks like his mom and that is not good. The younger Son is so handsome and does not look anything like the older one.She needs to go and buy herself a high priced mirror and then look and see what she looks like. She does look like a low budget want to be rich good looking classy black women, but instead she looks like a man and she may be, you never know. As for Deshawn, she is overweight and needs to see a dentist for that overbite she has. Her smile is onesided and messed up. Her husband is not good looking either and so they would be the couple to be married for 10 or 11 years. Noone is looking at either one of them. Clothes, shoes, purses, cars and homes does not make the person and she could look a little better if she spent some of that money on a weight lost program. Kim needs her hair done by someone that knows what they are doing, because whomever is doing it now has it jacked up. I don’t know why she can’t keep her hands out of it, I hope its not because she thinks it looks good. She can’t sing either. Sheree is pretty and if she did not mess with these messy women she could have something going for herself. She needs to consider working on her fashion business and let this show and these messy jacked up women alone. The other lady that is the only legitimate working one of them has it going on, but she needs to get away from this messy group of women and not let them put her business on tv again. She is the only real one of them as far as I can see she is the one that shows the real black woman and how they live, with money and also without money. She does not try to always bring attention to herself and she is a picture of what the Black Female should look and act like. Her husband is a nice guy and they act real not fake like the others. I just hate that they took the Black Women and made a picture that shows just how ignorant blacks act. I think it is terrible, you could even see that Dallas did not want to be showed on this program because it was tacky and tasteless and any black woman with any class would not have let them make a show with him on it, especially one that has it going on. Kim wants to be black so she is included in this mess she is going to need a lot of voice training, but before thay she is going to need to be trained to act like a real woman before she can concentrate on a singing career. These women and their husbands and children were put on this show and portrayed the black race as always messy and trying to do things that were not for the good of the home. They are all alcoholics every time you see one of them they have a drink in their hand, just like people think black people abuse alcohol and drugs is what this is showing. I don’t care if it is wine or whatever alcohol is alcohol any way you put it. I am proud that Mr. Snow is the one not drinking all the time as the others are. Their Children are present when they are drinking and that is awful. When do any of them help their kids with school work. If you are going to do the things that are suppose to be important in the black home don’t leave the kids and school out.I just get disturbed when the black race is shown in a disgracefull way and I think that this group of women got pulled into something thinking that it was going to be a show that had some class and it did not.
