Media promoting racism and bias or just a coincidence
So I'm watching Fox 8 WJW in Cleveland for news on the mayoral race. Now for those who need up to date, it's a white lady mayor Jane Campbell against a black former council president Frank Jackson.
So when channel 8 has it's updates and goes to the field reporters in the candidates HQs you have a white man in Campbell's interviewing an older white woman who sounds well educated, and you have a black man in Jackson's interviewing a black guy that basically brings about any stereotype, dressed poorly, talks poorly and tells that this election is for the the poor people and is against the rich whites.
Now, I know this is a Fox affiliate but I truly respected WJW because they seemed down to Earth and had the best true news reporting in the area. And they are the highest rated most respected news in the area.
After watching today, I am not so sure anymore. I felt their news candidate updates were very racist and poorly done.
Any opinions, was it just me or does that sound racist and very biased to you?
(P.S. I did not post this in politics because I don't want a political debate, I just want comment on the observation of the field reports.)

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
