The rumor mills is buzzing that the powers that be over @ BET are taking one more step away from what it is supposed to stand for. Can anyone take a guess what that should be? Well plainly put, its well known that BET has picked up TV show "The Game" which is returning with all new episodes. It has gotten out via many outlets that the station feels it necessary to pay white-actress Brittney Daniel more than everyone else. Last time I checked she was not the star of the show, so what could that be about? I cant figure that one out, but what I do know is that is not sitting too well with the already very critical public.

Today BET issued this statement:
The recent report regarding certain members of the cast of “The Game” being disproportionally paid by BET is completely false. As a matter of policy, BET does not engage in public discussions about salaries or similar private matters with its artists. However, out of our deep respect and appreciation for the talent and hard work of the entire cast and crew of “The Game,” we cannot allow such inaccurate reports to go uncorrected. To be clear, there is no disparity in salaries among the cast of “The Game.” We continue to look forward to bringing new episodes to the loyal fans of this series on 1/11/11.
