While the studios do this to make money, we should also agknowledge their role in perpetuating these kinds of myths. I can't think of a single family sit-com, for instance, that has an interracial leading couple. In fact the only sit-com I can think of that has any interracial couple is at the very end of friends (but I don't watch too much TV0.
Obviously this is in respose to continued prejudice in society. But whats the message society is getting back from the media? The the racists are right, that happy families only consist of people of the same race. So its a vicious cycle.
