Comment: We can never honor the good deeds of our people enough. However, it becomes taxing when the awards shows/dinners/banquets all address the same people and topics. I believe some of the organizations should start pooling their resources and events, which would make them more successful and less taxing on the people who frequent them. I also want to mention that in recent television awards shows I have been disgusted by the lack of sophistication, class and distinction held by some of the recipients and attendees. I grew up in a household where you respect the event and the people with proper formal attire and representation. This business of jeans and a t-shirt, inappropriate acceptance speeches and an overall lack of class only detracts from the show and the reason behind them. The lone exception was the NAACP Image Awards. I thought the Soul Train awards sent the civil right movement back 300 years. The Image Awards was done with much distinction and class, and I was very pleased to see our people standing tall and looking good. Kudos to the NAACP Image Awards for a fine event. - Malik S.

Bob Johnson may be the wealthiest black -- questionable. He is not the most successful. To have the only black television station in the last Decade and 95 percent of the content is hip hop and huchie mommas does not make my definition of successful. Capitalistic maybe. Opportunistic, but not successful. He should be ashamed of himself.

Therefore, Tavis and Tom can disrespect him as much as he has disrespected black audiences with the trash. -- Elona E-M.
