Want to be on Tee Vee?


My theory is, if you really want to be on television the easiest way to do so is to be an African-American who says they are a Republican.

There are about 38 million African-Americans, and looking at the election about 17 million of them voted in 2008.

How many voted Republican? Out of 17 million -- 670,000.

4 out of every 100 African-American votes went for the GOP ticket, FOUR!

Yet, it appears that virtually every African-American under 40 who voted Republican is a commentator on one of the three cable news networks.

Are you African-American, under 40, and moderately attractive (you can even be cross-eyed for goodness sake)?

Then Cable News Talking Boob may just be the job for you!

Meet the latest edition, from John Amato making a similar point.
