I like to ask friends what percentage of the population they think is gay. After TV and Hollywood pushing homosexuality for the past 25 years many guess 10-20 percent. When I tell them it is actually 1.5% they are always amazed. It’s a fun way to point out how Hollywood distorts reality.
Some Europeans think the US is 50% black because of their over-representation in the media.
Considering that Hispanics passed blacks in numbers in 2000, I’d think the TV diversity would reflect that; then again, it is much easier to control them with Univision in a foreign language...
