They've taken one of the greatest inventions of all time (the television) which could have been an absolutely amazing formational tool and turned it into a backdoor route into subconscious manipulation
People should begin a practice of total accountability, rather than looking the other way in the name of profit.
Money truly is the root of all evil.

The media is manipulating people was exactly my point. This isn’t nationally newsworthy. It was on FOX News online. It’s sad and wrong but with racism so prevalent these days the media is taunting people into doing it for exposure.
They expect big bucks and recognition. Anyone can make up a story about discrimination and it detracts from the true stories. You just know soon a white person will claim they went into a black-owned or black- neighborhood store and were called “honky” or worse. They’ll demand justice, money and equal retribution.
Yes, it happens every day in every locale. Publicizing it won’t change the situation as they expect. Copycat racism with heinous results will transpire.
The media needs to be clued in about the lonely, attention-seeking keyboard warriors whose goal is to create havoc and discord to entertain themselves and laugh at the outcome. We have people like that here but you’re recognizing their tactics and ignoring their taunts. No reaction means no satisfaction. It isn’t easy though ...
