It wouldn't surprise me at all.

That's downright paranoid.

Get a grip, Matt. CNN/Fox/NBC would *love* some white folks on a
rooftop. Most of their audience is white, and people love to watch
stories about people like themselves; it's money in the bank for tv
news.


To get some indication of the truth of this issue, one needs to start with
answers to the following questions (in my opinion):

1) What is the ratio of white to non whote in the parish you are discussing?

2) What is the ratio of poor white to poor non-white in the same areas?

3) Is it reasonable to expect that the number of whites vs non-whites shown
on TV should reflect those ratios?
