The television late-night comedy talk show lineup has been more diverse this fall.  There have been minority hosts popping up all over the late-night talk show scene. 

“The Mo’Nique Show” premiered this fall on the BET network and “The Wendy Williams Show” premiered on the Fox and BET networks. 

Both shows air Mondays through Fridays.  Williams made her mark as a longtime controversial radio host.  She’s often referred to as the female version of Howard Stern. 

Mo’Nique began her career as a stand-up comedian.  She eventually became an actress and has a major role in the upcoming film “Precious,” which was produced by Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey.
