Stacey Dash may have blown out the candles on her birthday cake and made a wish for relevance because that’s just what the conservative pundit received. After her comments on shutting down BET and other black programming in response to the #OscarsSoWhite outcry, the black community promptly sprung into action to remind her of the times when black media put her on their platforms.
Early to the birthday party was Roland S. Martin with these petty party favors:

BET needs to air Kanye’s “All Falls Down” video & blur Stacey Dash’s face out.

Stacey Dash also needs to know niche programming isn’t segregation either. Telemundo, WE, LOGO all niche but just get rid of BET? LMAO. Ok.

We don’t know who sent for the receipts, but we’re guessing it wasn’t Debra Lee.
Aww dang. I loved you in “Clueless”. I had no idea that you actually were.
