thankfully, i think its safe to say that most educated white people out there, or even those with basic common sense, dont have a problem with minority specific television and programs, etc like SiTV, BET,AznTV, etc. But it seems like on this website some white ppl have a prob with it. they say that these things segregate minorities from society. so i was wondering if youd be open to a WET? i wouldnt have a problem with it and my friends wouldnt either. we were talking about it and everyone was pretty much like "well its kind of pointless since american media targets white ppl mostly but whatever"..we have CMT, GAC, FUSE, etc. i love them. and i dont really think many white people in the real world would actually endorse it anyway. thoughts?

You did mention in your points that most television shows and ads aired on television is aimed at the white population. The reason why these stations exist with an aimed at minority market in the first place is that you can turn to channel after channel and rarely see a black, latino or asian face and even when you do it is usually they are surrounded almost dwarfed out by others and they are not the primary focus of the shows.
I remember growing up in the 70's and so happy to see shows like "What's happening, Sanford & Son and the Jeffersons" among others but when I would watch older programs like Leave it to Beaver, The Muenster, The Addam's family and etc there where no black faces nor black shows from that time period. It is if I have nothing to truly relate too beyond shows from the late 70's onward.
So with this all said if white people want another channel than by all means let it be. I know what I will be watching.

I wouldn't be offered. What would WET consist of anyway? Like you stated, media targets whites, so it'll be the same, except for the absence of Jews.

We minorities are so used to seeing moist or perhaps White leisure Media daily for our finished lives, no it is basic to be suprised in the event that they only got here out and clled it moist.

all these ideas and concept are not good because they reinforce and keep Segregation alive, driving people apart.

Current trends show us that only white people are racist.
Identical actions by any minority will always be justified

Depends. If it was like BET/AznTV, etc. just with whites I doubt if I would be. If it was a mouthpiece for david duke/tom metzger etc. I would definitely be.
