Myx TV, the only English-language multicultural Asian American entertainment network in the U.S, has been chosen as one of the official entertainment partners of Got Your 6, a campaign that unites the entertainment industry with top veteran-focused nonprofits to change the conversation in America, so that veterans and military families are perceived as leaders and civic assets. With this, Myx TV joins the likes of DreamWorks, Sony Pictures, Paramount Pictures, HBO and other media giants in supporting the campaign.

Myx TV General Manager Miguel Santos said, “”We are proud to be an official entertainment industry partner of Got Your 6. We are committed to fostering dialogue and understanding of veterans and veteran issues within the Asian American community and beyond.”

Santos was invited last January to the launch of “6 Certified”, in which content creators are encouraged to avoid “negative, stereotypical or extreme depictions of veterans as either “charity cases” or “heroes”. The event was organized by Got Your 6, a group devoted to accurate portrayals of veterans in entertainment. Studios and producers can earn a “6 Certified” badge to display during film or TV series credits if they follow and support. No less than First Lady Michelle Obama gave the keynote remarks at the event. The Got Your 6 campaign was launched in 2012 after the First Lady called on the entertainment industry to boost the depiction of veterans, as part of her Joining Forces initiative. Got Your 6 comes from the military term that means “I’ve got your back.”
