Also, they're not smart enough to be watching C-SPAN out of pure choice.

While the black callers to C-SPAN may be reading from a script, you made one outlandish statement here. What do you mean "they're not smart enough to be watching C-SPAN out of pure choice?"

I think he meant that the average black person dosen't watch ANY news. From my own friends I've never seen them watch anything but soaps and "Big Momma's House!" Usually they have the T.V. blaring with the stereo blaring in the back ground. I can never stay at their house for more than 5 minutes cause all that noise drives me crazy.

Consider it outlandisk or anything else you want to call it. I think it's pretty obvious from their comments they don't know what they're talking about, much less what anybody else has been discussing.

If it isn't from a "being Black" point of view, they have no point of view.

If you disagree so be it. But that is my opinion based on what I've heard and why I no longer watch C-SPAN. It ceased to be as enlightening as in the past.
