LOS ANGELES, CA, Feb 05 (MARKET WIRE) --
After only four outings since its January launch, the hugely popular Internet
radio program, The Content Black Woman Show (CBW), has nabbed the #1 spot for
current events programming on BlogTalkRadio.com. One of the few successful
mainstream or Internet radio talk shows with an African American female at the
helm, the program was featured last week in an Associated Press article
discussing the historic 2008 presidential race between Illinois Senator Barack
Obama and New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Hosted by 3BAAS Media proprietor and blogger Valencia Roner, the online show
provides news, opinions and insights from a "content black woman's" perspective.
Its zenith rise of nearly 20,000 downloads per week has made many take note of
this seemingly overnight web sensation.
"These are exciting times in our nation's history," said Roner, who was a
featured panelist at the 2007 BlogHer Conference. "With white men ruling talk
radio for so long, I think the success of the show demonstrates that the
market is hungry for a more diverse point of view. My goal is to be first in
class among the cadre of individuals providing a new voice. BlogTalkRadio is
allowing me the opportunity to do this and I couldn't be more pleased."
With the exponential growth of the Internet by way of YouTube, MySpace,
andother social networking sites, BlogTalkRadio tops the ranks of those
providing
expansive Web 2.0 audio programming. An interactive medium allowing users to
connect globally simply through their phone and a computer, in less than 16
months, the upwardly trending online network has registered more than 7,500
hosts. Many of these hosts are creating live call-in shows with unlimited
participants. At the end of these programs, users can subsequently repackage and
archive shows for future subscriber podcasts without software downloads or MP3
technology.
The only African American hosted and produced show in BlogTalkRadio.com's
top 5 most popular
shows out of some 51,000 currently featured, CBW is clearly meeting a demand
for strong advertiser-supported content appealing to woman in general, and
high-end
black consumers in particular.
Having specialized in marketing and public relations for over 15 years,
Roner
should know. The Los Angeles based entrepreneur and mother began the popular
blog Why Black Women Are Angry, with the intent of dispelling the less than
favorable stereotype of black women as being angry, focusing instead on their
inner radiance, physical beauty and emotional state of contentment.
Currently, Why Black Women Are Angry is ranked #1 for the search terms
"black
women" in Google's search engine. The blog was also recognized by
Ebony/Jet.com as one of the Ten Most Important Blog Posts for 2007 for
Roner's in-depth coverage of Prophetess Juanita Bynum and the controversy
surrounding
the popular ecumenical leader's pending divorce and criminal case involving
estranged husband Bishop Thomas Weeks.
On Wednesday February 6, 2008, Roner will feature guest co-host former Los
Angeles Superior Court Judge Kevin Ross for a special Super Tuesday Post
Election Edition of the program. The lively, no-holds bar discussion from
ablack perspective on the 2008 Presidential Race will kick-off at 9 p.m. EST, 7
p.m. CST and 6 p.m. PST.
