Broadcasting A World Of Whiteness

Recently here in journalism class at parkway west high school I read an article call “Broadcasting A World Of Whiteness.” This article was written by Jon Caramanica, a writer for the New York Times In the article there is evidence that most television shows are racial or using discrimination. The article states that the majority of the popular shows gives a race that isn’t white only a few lines, such shows are Two And A Half Man, Glee, How I Met Your Mother, and many more.

Also the article describes shows that show a perfect example of how to use a diverse cast such as “The Game” or “ Happy Endings”. It states that the show’s cast is compatible and laughs at each other jokes if someone would crack one at another cast member.

I personally feel the cast of all white members has become the ideal American television show since the mid 60’s.  For example “ The 70’s Show”, “Full House” is kids television shows that most kids idolize because they have the model families that most kids want to have. Like when I was a kid I used to fantasize about sitting at the kitchen table with my family eating dinner at seven o’clock everyday, but that is just how the American lifestyle is.
