The Jason Lee Show Partners With BET for the Launch of the BET Creators Studio


(NEW YORK  – Mar. 30, 2026):  BET today announced the launch of the BET Creator Studio, a dedicated space where culture-forward creators come to amplify their content with the power of the BET brand behind them. THE JASON LEE SHOW will serve as the marquee series, set to launch Wednesday, April 8 at 8:01 AM ET/7:01 AM CT, on BET.com and BET’s official YouTube channel.


Media entrepreneur Jason Lee joined forces with BET to be the marquee series for the Studio launch. With new episodes dropping every Wednesday, THE JASON LEE SHOW combines access to Lee’s day-to-day life with sit-down conversations alongside his celebrity guests. Each episode pulls back the curtain on the untold stories shaping today’s public narratives and the people driving culture forward. The series expands Lee’s growing digital storytelling slate, giving audiences direct access to the pace, pressure, and strategy behind building influence in multiple arenas simultaneously.

"I've been in rooms most people will never get into and now I'm bringing audiences with me,” said Jason Lee. “This show isn't just about entertainment. It's about the power of culture: how it's built, how it's kept, and how it's used. BET gives us the platform to tell that story at the scale it deserves.”

The BET Creator Studio serves as a creative engine for Black voices – pairing emerging and established talent with the infrastructure, resources, and distribution power of BET. From podcasts and digital series to short-form content and social-first campaigns, the Studio is designed to meet audiences where they are while shaping the future of Black storytelling.

“Black creators have always driven culture, now we're giving them the infrastructure to own it,” said Orchid Richardson, SVP of digital & social at BET. “The BET Creator Studio is where authentic storytelling meets serious distribution, and that combination is incredibly powerful.”

Creators interested in joining the Studio can learn more and apply by emailing betcreatorstudio@bet.net.

U.S. Murder Offenders by Race: 2023 FBI Data

  Data on murders (homicides) committed by race in the United States primarily comes from the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, which relies on reports from law enforcement agencies. The most recent detailed breakdown available is for 2023, but due to the FBI's transition to a new reporting system (NIBRS), not all agencies submitted complete data—only about 70-80% of the population was covered, so totals are undercounts. These figures represent known offenders (where race was identified), not arrests or convictions, and include single-offender and multi-offender incidents. In 2023, there were approximately 15,708 known murder offenders with identified race. Here's the breakdown: Race Number of Offenders Percentage of Known Offenders Rate per 100,000 Population White 8,842 56.3% 3.51 Black or African American 6,405 40.8% 14.00 Other (American Indian/Alaska Native, Asian, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander) 461 2.9% 1.31 Notes on the...
