It's remarkably simplistic to draw analogies between small kitchen appliances and cultural-diversity in a way that suggests that the latter is even remotely as "clean" as the former. Diversity is intensely emotional for those in minority populations, and it cuts to the heart. A cherry pitter merely cuts to the pit of a piece of fruit.
So, from a business model perspective, an emotionally-connected underserved niche can represent a viable opportunity.
>why would we want to segregate content to one specific channel or network...
>True diversity would be having this content everywhere.
Yes, that would be true diversity. But, it's not what we have. Hence, the opportunity for what you referred to as "segregation".
It's kind of a wishful world vs. the real world thing. Consider that, for those in a majority population, content that is specific to them is segregated as well...to all channels/networks.
But, populations that are underserved in media don't just go away because the content is not dispersed as one might wish. So, they represent a niche that is ripe to have their needs served via a medium that is exclusive to them. In that way, they are no different from any other underserved economic niche, on which a business might do well to focus.
