I found it interesting that the news stations sent Latino-looking people to these marches.

Anybody more "white-looking" and asking questions might've gotten mugged.

Perhaps appearance was part of their decision-making process, but I suspect they also needed people who spoke Spanish for interviews.

The Hispanic condo maintenance foreman came by and said not to venture down into the Hispanic neighborhoods today.

I took him at his word.

How do you find that unusual?

This is one of the most "right under our noses" racism the press perpetrates. They ALL do it all the time!

If there is an issue about Jesse or Black Panthers, even FNC/Britt will assign (black) Wendel Goler to cover it. If there is a hispanic issue: Orlando Salinas. If it's a chick issue, they have a chick cover it. If it's goofy, they put goofy Brian Wilson on to chuckle.

Every local station does the same thing. Blatant idiotic racism, as if there are black news events that only a black man can explain, etc.

(One of my pet peeves.)
