    Media = Jewish

    That's where.

    So far in these last three posts of yours you've managed to accuse me of racism, anti-semitism, and stereotyping. Here's what the Jewish author of the Hollywood article has to say about this sort of willful ignorance:

    "I have never been so upset by a poll in my life. Only 22% of Americans now believe "the movie and television industries are pretty much run by Jews," down from nearly 50% in 1964. The Anti-Defamation League, which released the poll results last month, sees in these numbers a victory against stereotyping. Actually, it just shows how dumb America has gotten. Jews totally run Hollywood."

    In no way is the 'Media' article 'painting the larger group', it concerns only seven individuals:

    " "Today, seven Jewish Americans run the vast majority of US television networks, the printed press, the Hollywood movie industry, the book publishing industry, and the recording industry. Most of these industries are bundled into huge media conglomerates run by the following seven individuals:

    Gerald Levin, CEO and Director of AOL Time Warner

    Michael Eisner, Chairman and CEO of the Walt Disney Company

    Edgar Bronfman, Sr., Chairman of Seagram Company Ltd

    Edgar Bronfman, Jr, President and CEO of Seagram Company Ltd and head of Universal Studios

    Sumner Redstone, Chairman and CEO of Viacom, Inc

    Dennis Dammerman, Vice Chairman of General Electric

    Peter Chernin, President and Co-COO of News Corporation Limited

    Those seven Jewish men collectively control ABC, NBC, CBS, the Turner Broadcasting System, CNN, MTV, Universal Studios, MCA Records, Geffen Records, DGC Records, GRP Records, Rising Tide Records, Curb/Universal Records, and Interscope Records."

    LOL, but you are right, I have done some stereotyping, and you've proven me correct:

    So you found an article that supports your beliefs...

    Good for you. :rolleyes:

    Unfortunately for both you and the author of that article there are a whole lot more media companies than just the few companies that he names.

    Perhaps you could find some quotes from Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to back you up.:laugh:

    My knowledge of who runs the media is not very good. I would have never connected being Jewish with a mention of the media.

    ...and add that to the list of racism, anti-semitism, stereotyping accusations from you. Thank you for again validating the truth of the point I started out to make:

    How do you think that you have validated anything?

    I believe that bigotry and racism and broad brush painting of any group is wrong.

    All you have done is validated what I merely suspected at the beginning of this discussion concerning you and your biases concerning Jews.

    No problem...

    But it was completely unnecessary on my part.

    Anyone could read your words for themself and see exactly what I see.

    But again, no problem.
