I was thinking about how the media is corporate owned and the pluralistic society. One thing I've noticed in my studies is that the media can be skewed in manipulating how people are seen, just like we discussed in class (more or less).
Chris Rock makes a similar observation, though he calls for the African American community to accept more responsibility for their actions in this clip.
I must warn you, the language is strong, so if you're offended easily, please don't watch this.
You've been warned. But if you want the crux of the argument, fast forward the scene 7 minutes in, and you'll see what I'm talking about. Can you see any contradictions in the argument, or how he states his argument?
