J.C. Watts launching a black oriented news network

Former congressman, J.C. Watts is creating a black news network called Black Television News Channel and is set to launch early to mid 2009. According to the NY Post, the news venture "has an agreement with Comcast cable to be carried in several cities with large black populations including Philadelphia, Chicago, Detroit, Washington D.C., Atlanta and Baltimore."

Watts told the NY Post: "I'm not so sure that you see anything on CNN or Fox News that specifically targets the African American community."

According to the BTNC website: BTNC will be a 24/7 cable news network that provides original news programming with a distinctly African-American perspective, filling a major gap in coverage of African Americans by today’s mainstream media.

If you are interested in learning more about the network, sending feedback, or looking for employment or have business proposals here is the website link: http://www.btnc.tv/

I like their poll question to which the results should be obvious:
Does the African American community really need it's own news channel?
90% yes
10% no
