BREAKING NEWS - GLO TV with PRESIDENT MAURICE JAMAL FEATURED IN JET MAGAZINE

GLO TV, THE WORLD’S FIRST URBAN LGBT TV NETWORK AND ITS PRESIDENT MAURICE JAMAL FEATURED IN JET MAGAZINE

Maurice Jamal, President of GLO TV is featured in the current issue of Jet Magazine speaking about the future of independent film, digital media and GLO TV. As a pioneer amongst urban LGBT filmmakers, Jamal discusses how GLO TV sets an example for the new trends and desires in digital media.

“We have to create a different economic model as filmmakers and storytellers. I had so many friends, not just in the gay community, who would say they had great stories but no way to get them out. So a bunch of us got together and founded a television network as a way to get filmmakers out there whose voices you don’t hear from a lot,” Jamal reflects.

The article, with actor Jaden Smith on the cover, is on newsstands now. Pick up a copy and write to the editors at JET to inform them that you want to hear more about GLO TV, as well as quality representation of the urban LGBT community.

The future of TV has arrived and it is about reflecting our community. Be bold. Be proud. Let everyone see your GLO!

Kool Moe Dee Assumes New Role as Digital Content Guru

Kool Moe Dee, he of "Wild Wild West" fame, has now taken on a new persona: Dr. Media, a character that's part of this sometimes painful to watch group therapy session with characters playing Publishing, Hollywood and Network Television. The three are all freaking out about sustaining relevancy in the digital space, but somehow discussing Ashton Kutcher and getting a verse from the doc himself seems to put them all at ease. Or at least that's we gather since we couldn't help but fast-forward a few times.

This effort is brought to you by SoHo agency Barker/DZP it appears and is for NYU Stern's weeklong "Digital Transformation of the Entertainment and Media Industries" seminar. We think Kool Moe Dee would be better served just reviving his feud with LL Cool J at this point.
