BEEF: BET vs The Boondocks

BET has undergone a political conflict with The Boondocks. BET threatened litigation if the 14th and 15th episodes of the second season were aired due to references to BET.
The two shows take aim at BET's top execs and the continuous efforts, the network makes to showcase and amplify, negative imagery and stereotypes that work as a "destructive" force within African American culture. However BANNING these episodes, has only brought more attention to the show, as curious minds wander....
Obviously the truth hurts and BET can't stand to take a look in the mirror and own up to the damage they are causing to the youth (their target audience) with their socially irresponsible programming.

If you want to see the uncut and uncensored episodes, Season 2 of The Boondocks is available on DVD now!
