I'd say he won best opening monologue but they aren't giving awards to black people this year.
About Paul Spoerry
I’m a groovy cat who’s into technology, Eastern Thought, and house music. I’m a proud and dedicated father to the coolest little guy on the planet (seriously, I'm NOT biased). I’m fascinated by ninjas, the Internet, and anybody who can balance objects on their nose for long periods of time.
I have a utility belt full of programming languages and a database of all my knowledge on databases... I practice code fu. Oh, I've also done actual Kung Fu, and have a black belt in Tae Kwon Do.
I run. I meditate. I dance. I blog at PaulSpoerry.com, tweet @PaulSpoerry, and I'm here on Google+.
I'm currently work for IBM developing web enabled insurance applications for IBM and support and develop a non-profit called The LittleBigFund.

Probably.

ok ty
they segregated themselves so i dont get why they are mad they have their own awards but they arent successful so they attack them? you know but thats not racist?
They didn't segregate themselves. I'm pretty sure different bathrooms and water fountains wasn't because non-whites wanted them. Similarly, BET and whatnot was formed because of a lack of inclusion… not as a method of excluding anyone. And BTW several white artists have been nominated for BET awards including Justin Timberlake, Eminem (Marshall Mathers) and Justin Bieber.
White privilege is the systematic advantages of being white. Nobody had to create a WET (white entertainment network) because white is already the default. Flip on the TV to any major network and tell me how many lead characters are white. Look at the movies nominated for the Oscars this year and tell me how many are white. Because white is the default, BET is not racist.
I once heard an analogy for these situations, "A white person complaining about misrepresentation is like an able-bodied person wanting 'abled-only' parking."
