Keep My Name Out Of Your Mouth! Diddy, Africa Channel Rip Comcast Over Byron Allen Case

Sean "P. Diddy" Combs released an official statement basically telling Comcast to stop using his the name of his company in their case against Byron Allen.

In an official statement, Combs said, "My name and my network, REVOLT, have been mentioned recently by Comcast in reference to the Comcast/Byron Allen US Supreme Court case as an example of Comcast's inclusive practices with respect to African American owned cable networks. While it is true that we are in business with Comcast, it is not accurate to use my name or my network as an example of inclusion. I do not want my name to be used inaccurately so I must speak my truth. I also want to make clear that this case is now about much more than cable distribution. It's about the civil rights of millions of African Americans and other minorities."

Paula Madison, an owner of The Africa Channel joined Combs in support of Byron Allen's Supreme Court Case. The network also released a statement saying, "Although Comcast has not shut out TAC, Comcast has not been a good business partner. With an unkept — yet repeated — promise by Comcast of 4 million additional subscribers it’s inaccurate to include TAC in any grouping of Black-owned independent networks which would typify the Comcast business relationship as good or in any way proactive,”
