I'm confused as to the racism rules - mainly who they apply to and how they are applied. I used to live in Virginia, where we had a governor who had pictures surface from college parties where he was in black face and/or a KKK robe. He never apologized and certainly no one uttered a peep about removing him and he still sits in the governor's mansion, useless as ever, the issue really all but ignored. But now there is all manner of ruckus around and the removal of - at least for now - the host of a non-serious dating show for what amounts to a far lesser offense. One of the two has a more serious job with a more serious charge, yet who is on the apology tour and out of a job? Just think of how ridiculous that is. My sister still lives in the area and recently sent me a Washington Post article on this nonsense. Apparently the powers that be at ABC have done work on demographics and, like it or not, the core audience is white women of a certain age and the seasons with the lowest ratings were those with the 2 black leads. It is what it is. This message board probably does not reflect that majority of people out there who JUST want to watch a reality show without getting bogged down in politics, racism, what is and isn't fair, why there are no fat people on the show, etc. Anyway, i've watched every season and am done with the whole thing without Chris and I hope any revamp with these two nitwits as hosts tanks.
