Blacks on TV: III
- Share via
How many times must we face the complaint that some movie or TV show did not portray one race or another as someone would like (Letters, Oct. 18)?
You are talking about Hollywood; this is not real.
Hollywood is not ripping blacks off for profit; they’re ripping everyone off for profit. Why did you think they were in business?
Imagine the horror if people based their opinion of white people on “The Three Stooges,” “Harry and the Hendersons” or the presidential debates.
If you’re looking for racism, simply ask yourself which statement you would say is most true:
Bill Cosby, a good black role model, or
Bill Cosby, a good role model?
You won’t be able to form an opinion about people until you turn off your TV and go meet some real ones.
