: MediaTakeOut.com learned that actress Rachel True is speaking OUT against the CW network. The rant all started when she began criticizing the CW's new show High Society - where the reality stars openly call Black people the N Word.
She then claimed that the CW owed the "black shows" some "reparations." She further claimed that those shows (such as Girlfriends, Everyone Hates Chris, and The Game) "built" the CW network.
Not sure about reparations, but the CW really needs to put on more Black shows . . . have you seen the TERRIBLE RATINGS their current shows are getting . . .
She may have to deal with that one another way. Reparations? All they really owe you is whatever is in the contract that you worked for. But the only way you can get anything extra is through a lawsuit. And on what grounds? You can also protest the network or the TV show. And we use the word so much as black people, it's even used as a "term of endearment". That's why the show is still on the air......no one has complained about it!
Well UPN did get most of heir rating from the black shows, there was an entire line up that put them on the map. WB was always known to be on the racist side, remember that shuckin and jivin frog! When they combined, they didn't really promote the black shows and they intergraded and the characters got lighter and lighter. Look at girlfriends! Reparations, that's a bit extreme.
This silly broad is just broke. Personally I hate those silly azz sitcoms and reality tv as well. Even if the CW did have more "black shows", ninjaz would still get shidded on. They still want "black folk" to use "ebonics", make jokes all the damn time, have some drama, and other BS. Its always the same shyt with a diff toilet. I only watch educational shows, some moviesn and porn. This broad just needs a job. And no one wants to hire her in hollywood. Like everybody woke up this morning saying "you know, that rachel true girl really needs some reparations and some acting gigs" lmbao
The Game was the [EXPLETIVE]!!! I knw her..And I'm not going to disrespect her either cause she maybe telling the truth and as a black community ppl need to take certain things more seriously instead of worrying who she is. It's deeper than that if that [EXPLETIVE] is going on. But I can't expect everyone to not be ignorant.

AAUUUUOOO AUUUOOO AUOOOOO!!!
She's right about one thing: the CW began with an initial strong black sitcom presence. I thought it would be the network that gave black shows a mainstream platform. But then, they began to cancel all the black shows. I guess they wanted to go in another direction, literally. I see why she's upset. They got rid of good black sitcoms with substance and replaced them with garbage.
That show had the best looking women on it, her,her sister,her mother,and Aunt Rachel from Family Matters. But F&$* the CW. That whole network can go lick rocks. The only time I watch the CW is when The Bulls are playing and now that sucking so bad now I don't have to watch especially on the CW. F@#$'em!
The cw nite time shows r sum [EXPLETIVE] that vampire [EXPLETIVE] fake ass twilight like come on they take the game hates Chris and girlfriends off n put dumb shows on n I agree cw does owe them sumthin it's sad tv these days I only watch Maury Steve wilkos judge mathis n maybe Tyra king of queens n then the cw time is over I'm on to the next channel cuz there shows r lame
Rachel is not dumb. She knows there's no way CW is not going to give her any reparations, Just as Rev. Al knew he wouldn't become President. Publicly the point got heard. Just as President Obama had klan organizations to support his ideas and help him win. why? At the end of the day money is the cure to all things, no matter what business you're in. a solid FOUNDATION (black shows). CW executives aren't laughing, they're hoping blk screen writers start presenting new shows. In 2yrs there will be more blk shows on those net works and MTO will be trying to still the credit like always.
WHO THE FUKK WATCHES THE CW?? OH EXCEPT WHEN MAURY&TYRA'S TOP MODEL COMES ON. AND TYRA GONE WHITE 2 SO I REALLY DON'T FUKK'S WIT THAT 2 MUCH. OTHER THAN THAT I HAVEN'T BEEN WATCH'N THAT STATION SINCE THE WAYAN'S BROTHERS. I LIKE HER THOUGH SHE WAS SO GOOD IN BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER& THE CRAFT. SHE SHOULD JUST GET ANOTHER SHOW.AND THROW ROTTEN EGGS AT THE CEO'S CAR&HOUSE,PRANK CALL HIM&HIS WIFE,LEAVE SOME PIG SHYIT ON THEIR DOOR STEP&LEAVE.
You know it's funny how many of you are dissing her instead of digesting the truth she is speaking on. Punk azz CW network has shut down all the best shows on television with no conviction (Girlfriends, Everybody Hates Chris, Half-and-Half, the Game, etc.) and kept all the b.s. shows that has the same dumb azz, unoriginal themes. And you clowns want to talk about her, her standpoint, etc? That's a damn shame. I'm goin with Rachel on this one because those CW punks screwed over the black shows that made them who they are. Ungrateful, two timing ***** - fill in the blank!
Can a non-black person please call me the N word, so I can have a reason to release my sociopath/scizo side. I will gladly go in handcuffs, if caught. I have never heard of High Society show but I will be on the look out so I can see this shyt for myself. I don't think Rachel is crazy, I think the CW is racist and play Blacks outta their money for those shows.
Shes right.. How could u turn on those who helped u build success? If it wasnt for the actors, there wouldnt be a show. I think its a shame also, how some feel that calling blacks the n word is acceptable & cute. I wouldnt be cool with that either......Employers need to understand that ur employees are the ones who make ur business function, so when ur trying to half step & not pay them fair salary, it causes nothing but confusion. Start paying these people what their worth
I agree. She is actually SAYING SOMETHING. Before it was The CW, it was UPN. Which (in my book) stood for: Under Paid Negro. & just like she said, they reeled in the niggz w/ Girlfriends, The Game, Half&Half, & All of Us. Then, they DROPPED all the nigg@ shows & started promoting Veronica Mars & Gossip Girl & all that other CW (cr@cker, white) bullshit. This chic is makin a valid point. But LIKE ALWAYS niggz FAIL to see the BIGGER picture. SMH
GOTTA AGREE WITH HER, WHEN DEY WERE D WB DEY DID D SAME THING 2 "D WAYANS BROTHERS" AND "PARENTHOOD", DEN UPN GOT OFF ON "MOESHA", "EVE" AND D LIKES AND AS SOON AS DEY BUILT UP A REP AND FOLLOWN DEY CANCELLED DESE SHOWS LIKE IT WAS OK. NONE OF EM, AND I DO MEAN NONE OF EM GOT A FAREWELL SHOW. I REFUSE 2 WAS D CW NOW B/C OF HOW DEY DID "D GAME", DEY HAV NO BLK SHOWS, AND MOVING TYRA 2 D WB DAMN SHO DONT COUNT.
High Society premiered Wednesday night after ANTM; In the 1st 5 minutes of the show some straw head exclaimed that she uses the 'N' word & she doesn't think anythings wrong with it!!! I turned it off Immediately. However it is true that the CW got their footing off of black folks hands down. The honest part is they still use all those re runs at un-GODly hours throughout the night. CW can't hardly pay black folks reparations back. Ms. True had a point. Tyra ought to be shamed; Cause her black a.ss is the only reason the CW is still raking in ratings.
I AGREE 110% ! BEFORE THE CW THERE WAS UPN... THEY HAD SHOWS LIKE JAMIE FOXX THE HUGLEY'S THE PARKERS BRANDY THEN THEY ONE ON ONE EVE HALF & HALF GIRLFRIENDS THEN THEY TOOK THEM OFF & HAD THE GAME & EVERYBODY HATES CHRIS. BLACK SHOWS MADE THE CW, BUT GAVE US NO RESPECT, BUT TRUST THEY WILL SOON SEE THEY WONT BE ABLE TO MAKE IT WITHOUT THE BLACK VIEWERS!!!
I think that she is just joking with the Reparations part. On a serious note, she is 100% right though white people have been using blacks from rock and roll time. Let us make something popular, dance, rap r&b,fashion,slang's etc, then they weasel their way in take over and like that good bye blacks.
Research is key.. Cw is a network owned cbs, paramount and warner brothers. UPN and The WB, ceased independent operations. Although upn had success with moesha, the parkers and girlfriends they also became popular with star treck, Veronica mars and smack down. The wb had success with shows such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, 7th Heaven and dawson's creek. Check out wiki for the whole story.

But LIKE ALWAYS niggz FAIL to see the BIGGER picture. SMH ...... I AGREE 100%.THE SHOWS THEY HAVE ON NOW ARE BULLSH@T.IM SOOO TIRED OF SEEING UGLY DISRESPECTFUL WHITE SLUTS WITH MONEY RUNNING AROUND.
