We have Black Entertainment Television (BET), so why not WET? Most will argue that "every other station is already dominantly white." This is an observation of the past. It is true that television has been prejudice, but the solution is not to create racism in the other direction. Most networks are now implementing other race groups in their programing. But why stop at WET? Why not SET (Spanish), GET (German), FET (French), and so on.

We already have foreign-language channels and stations with international content. We also have stations that do focus on a white audience—the trick is, they don't explicitly advertise themselves as such. Most anything dealing with a "country" experience, or "wholesome" entertainment is targeted (intentional or not) towards whites.
And it is all racist. But a lot of us don't mind because we do in fact feel more comfortable with this limited-availability "segregated" experience rather than having all mediums impose "one size fits all" on everyone. Every station is intended to fill a niche that the others don't.
