Stereotypical racial profiling by lamestream media moguls.
White guys can't jump, black guys are really athletic, hispanics will have nicely tended camps...ahhhh ferget it.

I can just hear the MSM complain if the "whites" end up winning.

I would watch a FReepers Vs. DUmmies!

Well, I won't be watching what will most likely end up being the last season of Survivor.
Who would want to watch this?

I would watch a FReepers Vs. DUmmies!I would hope that FReepers AND DUmmies would both have enough sense to boycott CBS over this overtly racist show.

"To the less-than-open minded person, it is very easy to trash us," Burnett explained to Entertainment Weekly. "But we're smart enough to not make it negative. We're smart enough to have gotten rid of every racist person in casting.A racist in production weeding out the racists in casting. Classic.

Brought to you by the same network that chose Dan Rather and Katie Couric as news anchors.

It's plain wrong that Asians should compete, or blacks, or whites or Hispanics? Unfair for someone, perhaps?
Sorry, couldn't disagree more. I think it'll be fascinating to see how the tribes mix during merges. Who will naturally join up with their 'fellows' and who will latch onto others for realistic reasons rather than racial ones.
It should be fascinating television to watch.

"It's plain wrong that Asians should compete, or blacks, or whites or Hispanics? Unfair for someone, perhaps?" Yes, it is just plain wrong for the show contestants to be segregated by race and pitted against each other.
The last thing America needs is more racial division. We are a melting pot, not a salad bowl. CBS should be ashamed of this crude attempt to balkanize America.
Racism needs to be relegated to the dustbin of history, once and for all. CBS's idea for "fascinating" TV only divides us as a nation.

Game over, man. The black team will be guaranteed the win. Yeah? Except for Survivor Africa, water has been a big part of Survivor, and on Cook islands for certain.
Black guys can't swim.
