Default TeleMundo Got some Splaining to do?!
So I walk into this Mexican restuarant order my food and sit on the chair to watch tv...needless to say TeleMundo was on lol jk...(the show that was on was hilarious and I dont even speak spanish)...anyway this is the first time I really noticed it but it seems as though TeleMundo does not at all represent the spanish community (it was basically a white out)

Is this the truth or am I jumping to conclusions? Keep in mind I dont watch Telemundo only in passing on several occasions

Explaining? It's a private company. It ain't the United Nations tv channel.

I think we should have only 4 tv channels. White, black, brown and yellow. Then everyone can watch their own people day and night.

I wonder how they would react to WET (White Entertainment Television)

Unfortunely on a negative way, because people know Bet was created as blacks woudl get an opportunity on a default US channel, but people will think WET is a channel with a racist background

TeleMundo does not at all represent the spanish community
I thought it represented the Latin American community living in the US?

Most television and movie productions are already catered to the white american populace, so having a WET channel would be quite redundant.

Oh so white people and black people think in different ways and are unable to be entertained by the same programmes?

In a sense yes. People want to see characters that they can identify with.

For most of American history, it was impossible to see black characters/people in magazines, books, tv shows etc unless the broadcasting/production element was black owned. Since the two cultural groups were separate. That is the reason for all the different black magazines and things such as BET.

There is no reason for white Americans to have a television station devoted to themselves, as there is no deficit in media in which whites can identify with.

But mainstream television isn't devoted to white people.
There are more white characters, but there are more white people in America overall.

I don't watch Telemundo, hardly any tv. at all, but I think these were all Latin actors/entertainers. So you are probably referring to their phenotype?

This post is an oxymoron. Spanish people are WHITE.

Yeah basically, Black humor is a bit different.

Black and white people don't have differently wired brains.
Different things aren't funny simply because of what skin colour you have.
That is a ridiculous thing to say.

WET? you mean everything else? LOl Yes on op of the already majority White telivision lets have a channel specifically for white people….wonder what would be on there that isnt on t.v allready. Friends re-runs?


@ jib humor just depends on your taste and education/intelligence. I love Fraiser,family guy, Richard Dawkins is Hilarious (seriously), But I also love Kevin hart, Dane cook, Southpark, comic view on BET, and straight up coonery Comedy.. (when I unleash my inner coon)
