Journalist and independent black media producer Yvette Carnell will drop in on the program to discuss the $20 billion dollar lawsuit filed by the National Association of African-American Media Owners against several big corporations like Comcast and AT&T. The lawsuit alleges that the corporate media giants practiced economic racism against black media producers and named National Action Network founder Al Sharpton in their complaints.

Byron Allen who joined the lawsuit and operates one of the more successful 100% Black owned media companies has been lobbing verbal bombs at Al Sharpton in the media alleging Mr. Sharpton provided vital assistance to the media giants in practicing racism against black media owners.
