From the supplier: Television news is based on social prejudices about blacks and no attempt is made at objective investigation. The focus on blacks as recipients of welfare and as beneficiaries of affirmative action programs reaffirms stereotypes and suggests nothing of the real picture. The universal problems of violence and drugs are reported as though they were specific to the black community. The prejudices appear either in the reporters' presentation or in the accompanying visual. Fair-minded reporters should report about reality without racial prejudice.
