A television company founded in part by the National Association of African-American Owned Media has filed a $20 billion lawsuit against Comcast and Time Warner Cable, claiming the companies have dealt in “pernicious, intentional racial discrimination” against entirely black-owned media organizations.
Also named in the suit are the Rev. Al Sharpton, the NAACP, the National Urban League, and Sharpton’s non-profit organization, the National Action Network.

Neither Sharpton nor Comcast immediately responded to requests for comment from The Huffington Post.
