<p dir="auto">They – we – all know that for many years, there’s been an unrealistic overrepresentation of black people in TV ads. Well, this has now been measured, proved and published in a report commissioned for Channel 4.<br />
It asserts that while black people account for around 4 per cent of the UK population they appear in more than 50 per cent of commercials.<br />
they even avoided representing disabled people just so they could shove more blacks on the TV screen<br />
It points out that the over 70s, despite making up 15 per cent of the population, only feature in 2 per cent of ads. Pregnant women are seldom seen either and anyone with a visible disability is usually kept well away from the cameras.<br />
And this is how the forthcoming shift will be spun. ‘We need to present a more truthful representation of the UK population so we’ll be showing more elderly people, more pregnant women and more people with disabilities.’ What they won’t say is ‘And we’ll be showing more white people’ but that’s what’s going to happen.<br />
and of course the anti-racists are always the most racist ***** in the room. these bleeding hearts leftoids need to be exterminated.<br />
A few years ago, I was working with a black actor who was bemoaning the way black actors were treated by the BBC. He said they were invariably cast as the good guys and perhaps, if they were lucky, as loveable rogues. And yet, as he pointed out, the best parts for an actor are often those of thoroughly nasty characters. These plum roles are usually given to white actors. So in their zeal to be seen as enlightened and progressive, white programme makers were keeping black people down in the workplace.<br />

<p dir="auto">Everyone hates commercials. Putting blacks in all of them is a psyop. If we start associating black people with commercials it will make everyone hate the blacks more. MAGA did this.</p>

<p dir="auto">And they bitch if they're cast as criminals too, so there's no pleasing them.<br />

<p dir="auto">Also felt that there wasn’t enough black representation in Menace II Society (1993)<br />
There should have been a lot more African Americans in that film<br />
