CNN gets "street"?
Thursday, April 30, 2009 at 06:19PM Directed at me from Alex Leo, of the Huffington Post:
Note Kyra Phillips' hip-hop gestures and insistence on the fist bump at the end. Meanwhile, the subject matter centers around black culture being "more open and inclusive" and we're seeing that in the president's "swagga'". Is this supposed to be complimentary and progressive, this segment with a forty-something white woman pretending to "kick it" with her black co-anchor? Even positive mass generalizations about race are still mass generalizations. This is why I glare at people who like to tell me Mexican-Americans are hard-working and resourceful. F*ck off.
