Why is television as segregated as a Nuremburg rally?
Aside from news and sports TV is 100% segregated. It is 2003. When is this nonsense going to end??

It's not really in the best long-term interests of ordinary Americans, but few US policies or social realities are.

And do recall that blacks were essentially wiped from primetime in 1999.
