Talk about underhanded -- a Democrat congressman can be seen in broad daylight accepting a briefcase full of bribe money and it is slowly brushed under the rug. However, the media engineers controversy on behalf of the left wing.
Isn't this in itself a prejudicial statement? I mean you're assuming that all liberals are waiting to snare trap people into sticky situations of racism, much like ABC was assuming and trying to coax out directed responses from people in the south. I personally don't see a difference at all.

Before you turn this around on me and tell me that I'm redirecting guilt, I will be absolutely forthright and say that ABC primetime live is pretty much equivalent to Page6 or TMZ in my book. Every week there's a promo for the hidden dangers in your house like "the hot tub that sucked out my toddlers rectum" to "how putting your phone on vibrate releases mercury into the local drinking water"

Fair enough. However, this is definitely very liberal.. Do you deny that?

I feel like this would be a real story if ABC was using actors as the people saying hateful things, and not just the gay couple.
