CNN T.J. Holmes, moves to BET

Not to sound shady, but why would anyone leave CNN to go to BET? More money, perhaps?

Whether you like his style or not, CNN weekend news anchor, T.J. Holmes, is an award winning journalist.

Which is one of the reason I'm shocked to hear that Holmes is taking his "talents" to BET; which is often referred to as the EBT network.

BET:

“We are simply ecstatic to have T.J. Holmes coming to our fold. He’s been an outstanding news anchor and we look forward to working with him in a variety of new ways on BET,” said Stephen G. Hill, President of Music Programming and Specials at BET Networks. “It’s now upon us to develop vehicles that capture his intelligence, curiosity about the world, warmth, humor and compassion. It’s a challenge that we are happy to have.”

I wish Holmes the best, but unless BET is going to create a ghetto news show highlighting buffoonery, Holmes' stay at BET will be brief.
