UHETV Makes Good on Its Promise to Bring Compelling and Educational Programming to Its UHETV Caribbean and Health & Fitness Channels.
Online, February 3, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Urban Hollywood Entertainment, a New York based media outlet that is committed to providing independent programming for filmmakers, actors, artist musicians and fashion personalities, has expanded its product base by forging a strong strategic partnership with health and fitness guru, Charles Mattocks, formerly known as "The Poor Chef". Inspired by his late uncle, mega recording giant Bob Marley, Mattocks' goal was to create tasty, nutritious and affordable meals to address the unhealthy eating habits of Americas less fortunate. This relevant and sought after information demanded his appearance on shows like, The Today Show, Good Morning America, The Talk, Martha Stewart, CNN, Dr. Oz and Anderson Cooper just to name a few.
Several years ago Mr. Mattocks was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and has emerged as the leading authority on educating the world on how to save the lives of those suffering from this killer. Mr Mattocks continues to appear on the top tier talk show circuit and is currently producing several projects in print, electronic and film media to further his efforts.
"We are ecstatic about bringing Charles into the UHETV family" said UHETV Caribbean's President of Operations, Peter Gordon. "This partnership will increase brand value for the network as well as raise the level of awareness for a health issue that is relatively being ignored by the media and profiting pharmaceutical giants. We welcome the opportunity to add to our already diverse programming, The Diabetic You documentary, and Reversed, a compelling and emotional reality television show hosted by Mr. Mattocks that will ultimately expose this rising pandemic as a lifestyle change that can be conquered by its 380 million victims worldwide."
"With delivery platforms across DishTV/Satellite, cable, IPTV and mobile, UHETV is uniquely positioned to deliver high volume audience visibility to Mr Mattocks and his cause", said Shirley Burris, CEO and Founder of UHETV.
UHETV Caribbean is a newly formed leg of Urban Hollywood Entertainment that will expose the diverse and colorful culture of West Indian entertainment, sports and lifestyle for those within the Caribbean, as well as those involved in the diaspora worldwide.
