Reply #1: Except that the CW is that minorities last 2 episodes and are then booted off. [View All]

Minorities aren't expected to last long at all on predominantly white shows... yes, minorities are not booted off the first episode, but that's only to keep minority viewers glued to the tube the following week.

It's about ratings and money.

Minorities don't make it all the way to the end on predominantly white shows, and in minority communities are not expected to.

I don't think the same holds true at all for predominantly minority shows. But I don't have the evidence in front of me. Do white people look at predominantly minority reality shows and expect that the white is going to be booted off by the second or third show?

Besides, all minorities are not created equal.

What this has to do with New Hampshire is disturbing and insulting to me :) It puts the blame on minorities, and not whites. It seems to me, at least. But thank you for putting this up.
