Question2
What types of Diversity do you see in the news (people,topics,viewpoints)
The types of diversity that I see in the news are strange things.Like when a black children gets raped or gets tooken and they call the cops and don't really do much.But if it was a white child and they tell the cops the whole cop force will go looking for him or her.That's reallyt not fair at all.We all should be equal and not be treated like that.

So do you think there is often discrimination against various diverse groups within the media? Is this discrimination just against the different races or other diverse groups as well?
also i see when people celebrate they holidays different. People on the news wear clothing different some people like them baggy and some don't. When i was watching the news one day some people eat different foods than other people.
