    1. I’m guessing Caucasians are not included in the multicultural communities tent, mmmm. So in reality it specific culture community! Why is it that the United States has worked for 245 years to be inclusive an in the last 12 years we have moved towards separation?

    2. Steve, if you can’t recognize the need for inclusive media, you are part of the problem. Obviously white people aren’t going to be excluded when they make up a significant majority in government and business. Talking about inclusivity and actually obtaining it are two different things. There is a lot of work yet to be done.

  1. This is good news for the city. Hopefully it gives us positive exposure. If you are complaining about this network not going out of their way to include the views of white people, your complaint is silly. The entire point of this is to give an expanded voice to minorities. If you don’t like it, change the channel. Anybody who lives in a society dominated by white culture and gets offended by a network whose purpose is to give voice to people from other cultures is a snowflake. Try not to melt.

  2. This could be really big for the city if this channel is successful. I can’t wait to watch. If you’re complaining that Whites won’t be represented, just tune into Fox News, OAN, Newsmax, or realistically every tv network other than BET or OWN.

    1. Nothing is “non-partisan” anymore. I have always split my ballots and I consider myself to be firmly in the middle. (“Political compass” tests agree with me on that, for what it’s worth.) The Trump-loving right thinks I am an evil socialist and the far left thinks I am some kind of evil crony. We’re so polarized as a country that the center is radical to both sides of the coin.

  3. Mr. McCoy is a mover and shaker. He has some great ideas. MNN is another great idea. But mainly folks this is good for Indy. Can we at the minimal agree on that point?

    1. If it actually becomes something anywhere close to as big as CNN, that would be amazing for Indy. This station alone should help empower minority voices in Central Indiana, along with the whole country. I’m sad, but not surprised there aren’t more comments about how amazing of an opportunity this is for Indianapolis. People should be excited no matter their politics.

Your go-to for Indy business news.
