Who Produced Hip Hop vs. America

The topic of my paper is based on the series aired on BET, “Hip Hop vs. America”. Since this was not an ongoing television series it was very difficult for me to figure out what person actually produced or directed the show. My first instinct was to go to the library since it is full of sources and not just the internet, although the internet is one of the largest databases for information and it is very convenient. So when I got to the library, I remembered that I did not know the producer of my topic. With this setback, I had to first start my journey by finding out who thought of putting this show on air. Well, what I concluded was that BET sponsored this mini series and they were the forerunners for this program. My first search started with of the course the very popular website, google.com. This time, google.com was not so helpful because it really only gave the website, which I already knew and it pulled up Wikipedia, which just gave me information about when it first started. I wanted to find some information that would help me with my rhetorical appeals for my paper, but with this limited information I was not able to do so. Of course this did not make me happy because I knew that that information would help me out a lot for this paper. After all, that is what this paper is based on. When I went to the official website for BET, I was able to learn a little bit more about what they were all about. It took me a minute to find where that particular information was located on the site. After my searching on the internet, I decided that there was nothing else I could really do next considering my situation. Why must everything be so difficult for me!!!

Do you think your process would have been any different after our library day on Wed?
