It would be very interesting to see people's reactions on this issue... not to mention when a grup is winning/ losing...

[GodBlessRonaldReagan]

when a grup is winning/ losing



He's a grup! Bonk, bonk, on the head!

[paudio]

LOL... group...

[Trteamer]

What? No Muslim tribe? We can't have that, it's supposed to show "diversity".

Actually I can't stand any of these so called reality shows. They teach our youth that "banishment" is acceptable and I think that is morally wrong.

[gatorhead]

if you want muslims, CBS is featuring a pair of "muslim fathers" as one of its team of contestants on this fall's Amazing Race.

[D-fendr]

It's a ratings grab.

Me too. I might actually watch if the goal was team oriented instead of cut-throat oriented.

[Trteamer]

I'm sure it won't be long before Al-Jazera has a show where the "banished" will get their heads chopped off.

[proudofthesouth]

I'm certain that the MSN will be complaining big time if the white group is winning or wins.

[Republican Red]

What happened to the Jewish tribe? They get lost again?

[Kakaze]

I don't get this at all.........

If I segregated people or customers by race, creed or orientation they would drive me out of buisness maybe off the planet.

And How is it showing "diversity" by effectively isolating ethnic groups and then instilling conflict.

I knew there was a reason I didn't watch this B.S.

[PeteB570]

Of the reality shows, Survivor is the only one we view regularly. We'll be in our seats on September 14th.

The original grouping will not last long before the 4 are merged into 2. I think the merge will be a complete shuffle of the players and not just a merge of two teams.

[twhitak]

What happened to the Jewish tribe? They get lost again?

The next show will have 16 contestants divided into 4 "tribes" based on religion: Christian, Jewish, Islamic, and Buddhist. The Islamic tribe will send 3 of its members in to suicide bomb the other camps, leaving one Muslim to claim victory.

CBS network ............(Fake but accurate!)

[reasonisfaith]

This smells like a desperate attempt by Hollywood to retain Democrat votes in November. Democrats can only win votes by pitting groups against each other, as we’ve observed over the past several decades.

If my hunch is right, we’ll see the whites depicted as conservative racists and the rest will be victims as dictated by the same old fabricated Democrat playbook.

[napscoordinator]

Survivor still on? I only watched the first season. We used to have Survivor parties. Those did not last long. The only reality show I really like is American Idol.

AAPA Statement on Biological Aspects of Race

[stocksthatgoup]

Put people in a racists mindset and watch the sparks fly! I hope CBS gets a black eye over this! Ooops........forgot they already have one.

[Republican Red]

I listened to a CNN report on this a few minutes ago. They described the four tribes as Asian-American, Hispanic- American,African-American and white

Are "whites" not American? CBS seems to be setting up the "white" team to be the villans/losers or they would use a more colorful description.

[Rb ver. 2.0]

Good idea because when it comes times to mix tribes it will show which ethnic group are the real racists.
