10 Times BET (And Other Networks) Threw Shade
Fox News vs. LL Cool J
LL Cool J didn’t approve of his name and likeness being used by Fox News for a Sarah Palin-backed show called Real American Stories without his permission. Why would he? After expressing his discontent on Twitter, the network removed LL from the promos, but not without issuing a statement: “…it appears that [LL Cool J] does not want to be associated with a program that could serve as an inspiration to others, we are cutting his interview from the special and wish him the best with his fledgling acting career.” Fox News, as always, played themselves.
