I owe one MSM TV channel an apology for the title of this thread. I just watched a run of commercials on FOXNEWS. There were white hetro couples in their commercials. There were commercials with diversity as well. Leave it to FOXNEWS to broadcast most truthfully.

All Canadian MSM TV stations, BBC, and ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, and the like in the States who fake the portrait of reality in the societies they broadcast to is whom I'm referring too.

I should not have made such a sweeping generalization in the thread title.

Dude, take a chill pill on this one.

If you are bothered by what you see on TV, turn it off.

The days of white only commercials are gone. Accept it and move on.

No one cares about heterosexual white couples!
Very true and with reason, the priority is going to the immigrants flowing into the country at the rate of a half million a year. Politicians and media know that immigrants will soon outnumber the whites. It has already happened im the GTA.

Better get used to it.
Yes, but does it reflect reality? Maybe I live in an alternate universe but I see very few (not none) mixed race couples in my travels around Toronto (no, I don't live in Forest Hills).

The few I see are usually (not always) white male and Asian women.

Commercial even reflect the family diversity. There is a granny, dad and boy eating Chinese food in this commercial, but no mom.

I'm surprised that commercial isn't pulled and a boycott started against paper towels.
White folks using chopsticks?! Isn't that now considered culturally insensitive?
Never mind the dog eating people food! PETA should be all over that!
Come on cancel culture , your slacking.

No joke. This will never stop.

I might have to get a new dog. He might be the wrong color. Just kidding (I hope).

Well off guys that get taken for half their worth in a divorce will often get an oriental woman.

This new trend is going to leave major companies woke but broke.
The whole point of a commercial is to advertise and market the product to reach the intended user with the outcome of increased sales. A lot of factors come in to play
Generally ,People want to see others like them or inspire to be using the product demonstrated.

(You're not allowed to say "Oriental", it's "Asian".) Mark Zukerberg is married to an ethnic Chinese woman who is accomplished in her own right.

I guess some of you are longing for the “GOOD OLD DAY’S” when everybody in the commercials were White even though they were lots of people of different races out there who were never represented.
I for one do not have a problem with it and accept our society as it is today. If these things are bothersome you really have to ask yourself WHY.
Also, when everyone was White in those commercials were you posting comments about it and wondering why there were no people of colour or other races represented there.

"According to data from the 2011 National Household Survey, about 360,045 couples, or 4.6% of all married and common-law couples in Canada, were in mixed unions." That was 10 years ago, so what is it now? Is it as reflected in TV commercials?

Some of the old school, white's only adverts were traumatizing! Until Sarah Davis returned, I didn't watch ANY TSN programming because of this.

Have you ever seen anything so horrific!

its all about appealing to groups to sell products. attracting specific groups versus a market that already buys the product. its seen in television programing and movies. gays, trans, black, muslim etc have been considerably added to media since those group watch it. we are seeing changes such as a female james bond, a gay superman etc.

frankly diversity has made movies and shows less appealing. I dont bother watching most of it not because of introducing different races etc but they deviate from what made the original attractive to me in the first place. eg george lucas starwars versus disney pile of shit.
