Jeff Johnson Meets Bill Maher?
Did you guys catch “The Truth” with Jeff Johnson last night on BET? I thought he did an excellent job. He never disappoints me and always approaches things with understanding, dignity, and knowledge. A graduate of the University of Toledo, Jeff has a long history with BET.
His show aired last night at 11pm and I was all eyes and ears. I loved hearing about the politics, but Bernie Mac and Isaac Hayes talk was very interesting. I like the new take BET has decided to take on the news. Jeff Johnson has hosted the controversial shows “Hip-Hop vs. America” in the past, and he appeared as a regular on Rap City as Big Tigger’s cousin Jeff. He is the former director of the NAACP’s Youth and College Division, and he is former Vice President for the Hip-Hop Summit Action Network. He brings a freshness to the news and doesn’t offer an overbearing personality to go with it.
I enjoy watching him and listening to what he has to say. I know that he has certainly been driven to do this by watching what direction the world is going in today. “The Truth” deals with the week’s headline news as well as issues that affect the Black Community. I wish him all of the luck in the world and I take my hat off to him. Thank you.
