broadcasting a world of whiteness

 In The article "Broadcasting a World of Whiteness" by Jon Caramanica talks about how a lot of T.V. shows are showing more white people than black, hispanic, and asian people. "Girls"is an example of not having enough of diverse shows. Thinking it's going on on all of the shows except BET and Centric. This article points out that other shows like "Two and a Half Men" and "How I Met Your Mother" are just as diverse like "Girls."Also that the criticism of all the shows reflect on the race of white people. Therefore in my opinion I agree that shows should be more diverse. Also I believe this because every time I watch T.V. or a movie most of the actors are white and there are only maybe one or two black or hispanic or asian people. Then I also believe that network television doesn't have diverse cast because mostly white can act better than white and also black people take it over the top with the emotions and white people don't. I wonder if anyone will change or fight to have more diverse casts on more white white television shows
