Media Attempts to Comfort White People After the Failed Bailout Vote

White people fear not! You can watch the news, and despite hearing from dozens of (mostly white) Americans who are in deep financial trouble, they will attempt to slightly calm your mood by showing the arrest of one or more people of color at the end of the broadcast. Because its when we enter crisis that people start thinking more - for better or worst - and if they’re questioning capitalism, you certainly can’t have them questioning the white power structure as well.

(For the record I was watching CBS news tonight.)
