THE TWO-COLOR VIEW

Not that I'm watching ABC's The View anymore or anything, but I was annoyed to hear about the fifth, new host on the show. Now, I don't have anything against what's-her-name, Sheri, or whatever. No, my issue is with the producers, and Baba Wawa.

With the millions of Latinos in the U.S., with their combined spending power and ratings potential as an audience, would it have killed them to pick a brown host, instead of another black one? Why keep pandering to one minority group? Worse yet, they've had an Asian, and an African American host, along with a slew of white hosts... one would think that ABC thinks The View shouldn't include Latinos or Latinas; that the only view they want is one of blacks and whites.

Racism takes all forms, and the fact that they continually underrepresented the single largest ethnic minority group in the nation (not to mention the fastest growing minority) speaks volumes. Latinos everywhere should boycott all the show's sponsors until they make amends. Period.
