Hip-hop mogul and Revolt TV Chairman Sean “Diddy” Combs is clearing the air after the music channel was mentioned in the Comcast/Byron Allen U.S. Supreme Court case. 

On Thursday, the millionaire chastised Comcast for using his name and Revolt TV as a defense against claims of the telecommunication giant’s discriminatory practices. Allen claims Comcast denied carrying his Black-owned channels due to racial discrimination before the case reached the highest court in the land on November 13 after a three-year battle.

In Combs’ statement, he 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.”

He further debunked Comcast’s claims of inclusivity by emphasizing the historical and legal facets of the Supreme Court case. 

“In its efforts to get the lawsuit filed by Byron Allen dismissed, Comcast has taken a legal approach that could weaken fundamental civil rights protections,” Combs wrote. “I have a problem with this. The Civil Rights Act of 1866 section 1981 was designed to ensure Black people are able to do business in this country and not be denied because of race.”

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court heard arguments regarding claims that Comcast refused to pick up Allen’s Black-owned channels and, more specifically, considered if cases similar to Allen’s can be tried without showing racial discrimination as a key factor of denial. 

Despite the tug-of-war between Allen and Comcast, other media companies like Verizon Communications, Inc. and DirecTV continue to carry programming from Allen’s Entertainment Studios Networks. 

Unsurprisingly, according to Reuters, the Trump Administration is siding with Comcast in the discrimination case. 

Reuters also reports that while some of the justices believe that upholding the lawsuit should not be based on Comcast’s stringent standards, judges on both sides of the aisle agree that the appeals court ruling in favor of Allen’s argument may have to be set aside as they come to a ruling for this case. 

Diddy challenged Comcast to consider its role in making Revolt TV and other Black-owned channels accessible to audiences. 

“The start we received from Comcast, which was a condition of the United States government approval for Comcast to acquire NBCUniversal, was important, but it is not the level of support needed to build a successful African American owned network. Not even close. Since that launch, our relationship has not grown and Revolt is still not carried by Comcast in the most affordable packages nor is Revolt available in all of the markets that would enable us to serve our target audience. Comcast spends billions of dollars on content networks every year and just a few million go to African American owned networks like Revolt. That is unacceptable,” Combs said.

The Supreme Court’s ruling for the Comcast/Byron Allen case is due by the end of June.
