Direct quote from another article on this site:

“Michael Vick’s story is about second chances and we are excited to have the opportunity to tell his complete story,” said Loretha Jones, President, Original Programming, BET Networks. “What happened to Michael is endemic of what is happening to young Black men today.”

So there you have it. Top BET brass ACTUALLY BELIEVES Mike is a “victim”– not a Victimizer…

BET. It’s not like there is ANY doubt about Vick’s willful involvement. To say his story is “endemic” of what is happening to young Black men today is a total slap in the face.

en-dem-ic -adjective

1.natural to or characteristic of a specific people or place; native; indigenous

SO JUST WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY HERE, LORETHA???

Are you serious!? I couldn’t believe it when I heard that BET was doing a show with Michael Vick. I had to look it up here to see that it was true because I couldn’t wrap my brain around the fact that anyone would do something so completely ridiculous. I’m sure Michael has his own personal demons or “reasons” for his actions, but anyone with a heart or conscience could never partake in the activities that he was involved in. Dog fighting is a cruel, heartless, dark abomination. I would like to think that he is working on himself and has remorse, but regardless of that, he in NO way should be showcased. I don’t even understand why he is allowed back in to the NFL and is not serving time. I will never watch this show or BET again and I will encourage everyone I know to do the same. I think it’s in very poor taste and reflects terribly on BET. What are they thinking?

I agree with peta…I think his only regret was getting caught. I hope all of his earnings from this reality show go to help animals. I plan on discouraging all of my clients from watching BET if this Michael Vick show goes through…..

I’m completely disgusted by this news. Isn’t it enough that they already allowed this ignorant monster back in the NFL? I for one would never even consider watching BET again after hearing this. Is this the rolemodel you want representing the network? Even googling Michael Vick makes me sick I would rather see him rot in jail then have to ever see his face on tv.

I recently visited Best Friends Animal Society in Utah where many of the Vick dogs are not being taken care of. Until Michael Vick contributes to the upkeep of these dogs I fail to believe he is remorseful. The only regret he has is being caught. I will boycott any advertiser for this show as well as any sponsors for the Philadelphia Eagles.

I already stopped watching BET as soon as I heard that they were even considering putting that scum on tv, bad enough that he’s on the tv when the sucky scum like eagles play. He deserves NOTHING!!! Like someone said before, find a rock and live under it, all yall who like him.
