Black people in prison/death row

[Reno]

One of the biggest problems with representaton of black people in teh news is just that.
it\'s the news. They put up stuff that people wanna hear, or what will draw ratings.

You\'re likley to get alot more people watching if you hear about \"all those poor black people on death row\", negating the fact that there might be just as many, if not more, white people there was well. It\'s about curbing you words to get the most attention.

It\'s like with crime rates. White people do, indeed, do criminal things. But what do you see on TV? Always the black guys that are out doing drugs, robbing stores, etc. Because that\'s what we\'re accustomed to hearing, and that\'s what\'ll draw attention.

This is why you dont really ever listen to the news(heck, i hardly watch tv anymore. I like my brain. I dont need cnn cramming overhyped, curbed, garbage up my nose )
