The Call to Action
The Problem:
Across the nation and world, Black people are disconnected from authentic news and expert information from a Black perspective.
Moreover, credible Black media is often unfairly censored via the internet, social media and other online networks, giving unfair representation for the voice of Black people. This creates a disconnect for Black media outlets to reach their base of supporters; the chain reaction causes lower viewership and impression rates when attempting to seek funding. This is a major problem for content creators seeking funding individually because they do not have the "numbers."
​
It is no surprise that the Black community overall is behind in technology and innovation--on both sides, Black media, and the Black base of internet users.
​
The Solution:
The Black Headline News (BHN) channel is a collaborative movement, highlighting the importance of disseminating valuable information to communities across the nation from a Black perspective. The collective effort gives Black-owned media outlets a unified, safe, platform to connect with online readers, viewers and listeners nationwide, sharing content across the world diaspora, expanding their reach, brand and audience. This collective effort is also a great bargaining chip for outlets seeking funding opportunities, additional advertising revenue, and audience expansion.
​
The Black Headline News channel gives online Black media the opportunity to join a movement to deliver authentic, vetted information without unnecessary, unfair censorship through the media platform in various ways: via other Black media and news media outlets with websites, via the OTT Roku channel, via online radio network, via podcasts, and via nationwide public access TV.
​
Content creators of news and informative podcasts have a platform to place their content, seek sponsorship funding for their programming while using the viewership and listnership numbers of the collective network.
​
Advertisers and corporate partners have an opportunity to connect with niche regional and national communities effectively using the collaborative platform to distribute their messaging to diverse audiences.
​
