Trump is racist, Democrats help the poor, Republicans are rich, the south is full of racial tension, global warming (its called weather and its been around since the beginning) politicians are 'public servants'

Roaring Trumps assertion about Mexicans "They're murders, they're rapists" is clearly a stereotype of Mexicans? Agree that the positive stereotype of democrats helping the poor has very very few actual examples nowadays. -
Archie Bunker He didn't say that about all Mexicans. Good try. -
Linda Joy The media would like to portray all whites as racist. And Democrats have been keeping the poor poor since FDR took office. I don't care I'm smart enough to realize there is an off switch and I don't have to hear it! All of media is a feeding frenzy trying to cause hatred and discord. Nothing out there anymore is trying to bring people together in unity and love (except my Church). It just doesn't drive up ratings. Well, I can turn them off and I have. -
Linda Joy Oh and the gay people! You'd think as a survey said most people asked said they thought there were about 20-25% gays in America. Judging by the disproportionate number of them in the media I would have agreed. "The percentage of LGBTQ series regulars on broadcast primetime scripted programming is up to an all-time high of 8.8 percent," But there are only 4.5% gays in this country. So why are there so many of them in the media? Because you will be viewed as intolerant if you don't promote lgbtq. And you will be viewed as prejudiced if you don't load the programming up with minorities and minority views! Its distorting perceptions. And it is intentional. They are given disproportional time for their views and their issues and the person who is really discriminated against is the majority who are minimized and often even villified by this disproportion!

Linda Joy "As of July 2016, White Americans are the racial majority. African Americans are the largest racial minority, comprising an estimated 12.7% of the population. Hispanic and Latino Americans are the largest ethnic minority, comprising an estimated 17.8% of the population.[8] The White, non-Hispanic or Latino population make up 61.3% of the nation's total, with the total White population (including White Hispanics and Latinos) being 76.9%." But there are far more blacks on tv than hispanics. Why the disparity?

Linda Joy Andrew Rojecki, an associate professor of communication at the University of Illinois-Chicago, is co-author of “The Black Image in the White Mind: Media and Race in America,” published in 2000. He and co-author Robert M. Entman found that in their sample of 1,620 ads on ABC, NBC, and Fox, African Americans appeared in 32 percent of them. Additionally, 3.3 percent of the ads featured only black actors, 28.7 percent featured both black and white actors, 58.8 percent featured only whites, and 9.1 percent had actors of an “East Asian facial cast.” https://journalisms.theroot.com/are-there-too-many-african-americans-in-tv-ads-1820118109 It doesn't even say how many were latino, much less any other minority.

That black Americans are lazy and on welfare. This is because the lazy and dumb ones keep making it onto the news. They are the ones who make the rest of the hard working black people look bad. It then brainwashes many other people to think all black people do not like to work.
