6. Diddy introduces music-themed cable network called Revolt TV.
In partnership with
YouTube,
Diddy will be launching a new network called Revolt TV. The network will be distributed via
Comcast as part of their new initiative to have more minority-run networks on TV. In an interview he said,
"When I was growing up, I was watching television all the time — I used to wonder, 'Why don't those people look like me, or talk like me or walk like me?' So thank you to Comcast; my hat goes off to you for being the first to step up."
Diddy says this program will be bringing a "new energy." The program is set to be released by the end of 2012. Commence "Diddy-vision." [
