Commercials on TV don't show white couples.

[Darts]

Not sure about the stats but I see white people/families adopting different race children.
Charlize Theron, Sandra Bullock, Angeline Jolie, McCains, etc. Maggie O'Neil is adopted.
Our street did one better, we "adopted" an entire Afghan family.

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

Mom ''could'' be working?

Network television and network tv commercials are aimed primarily at the age18-34 demographic and to a lesser extent, 35-49. This is because the former group and some of the latter group chose which products and brands to buy in part based on advertising.

People 50 or over have already decided which name brands they will buy. A commercial won't change their mind. TV shows with a larger audience of 50+ viewers often have ads for arthritic pain relief and erectile dysfunction, so you see those products advertised on Jeopardy!, or a golf or curling match.

Guys, you now live in a minority white city. Accept it. Move on.

There are now non traditional, mixed race couples. Accept it. Move on.

 

[bangbro77]

What commercials are you talking about ?

 

[Darts]

There are now non traditional, mixed race couples.

Yes, but not as many as portrayed in these TV commercials. I have a "loose" affiliation with one of the universities and I see nowhere near the number of mixed race young couples as those in TV commercials. Anyway, I also don't see too many short people (unless they are kids) in TV commercials either. This is just a discussion. I've been part of a mixed race couple in the past as well.

I have a white male friend who's not very handsome. White girls (Stacys) wouldn't date him. He went to Thailand on vacation and fell in "love" with a Thai girl. Long story short. He married that Thai girl, they have a couple of kids and her entire family is now in Canada.

Guys today are forming relationships with women from other ethnicities, or sometimes with other guys, in part because they don't want to be paired up with a radical Feminist who has a bug up her nose about everything. Women from certain cultures are traditionally submissive/ subservient, and that's what a lot of guys want; a woman who is happy to cook and clean and please her man.

There's the old joke about the farmer's classified ad: Farmer seeks hard working wife with tractor. Send picture of tractor.

Unlike in previous generations, men today often see that having no one is often better than settling for someone with whom you don't want to be.

Maybe that is why I see many white male/Asian woman couples.

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.

You realize that the ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, CTV and so on do not actually make the commercials? They get paid to air them. The companies and their ad agency are the ones that create the campaign that could include mixed race couples, gay couples, white couples or Asian families in the ad. Has nothing to do with the perceived political leanings of the channel. I mean, I could guarantee you that if you paid Fox News to air an ad, you could have the most flamboyant gay mixed-race couple with a tranny partner hawking adult diapers. As long as you got the money (and the ad meets broadcast standards), a channel will likely air it.

Stop buying their products.

I don’t have cable but commercials I have seen have more diversity all the way around. There are more POC, gay, mixed families.

I think it is great. The world is a mix, commercials should be as well.

Yeah, the only people who seem to have a problem with this are on the right. Has Tucker Carlson mentioned this when he talks about white genocide or some other racist dogwhistle talking point?

 

[fictionfactor]

I noticed that as well. Perhaps the mixed couples are so they appeal to everyone.....Some thing I also did notice. If you watch all the commercials before a show comes back on, over 90% of the actors in almost every commercial are Black. With very few white actors

90 Day Fiancé is a reality show on TLC that I've never seen. As far as I know, all of the couples on the show are heterosexual, but you wouldn't know that from this picture link on msn dot com today:

Brands are simply virtue signalling...they can do whatever the fuck they want...

 

[Darts]

These commercials are a subliminal message from the radical left to convince us to all want partners from a different race. Just kidding!

I've been part of a mix race couple myself so it doesn't bother me. (The lefties can get off the soapbox now.) It's just that the proportion of mixed race couples in commercials don't reflect the proportion in the real world yet.

 

[hemorid]

Most of the ads are filmed twice, once with a white couple and again with multi-racial couples.

Ontario is considered a sophisticated and diverse province, so they target us with those multi-racial commercials. Of you ever watch Alberta or Quebec television channels, it's usually more lily white.

Finally someone who gets it.

For minority union and non-union actors this is a gold rush. For good white talent, the work they get is down substantially as companies need/want to look inclusive regardless of their target market.

Let's see what happens with the Canadian Tire commercials.

I have an ex girlfriend that is of colour and a actress. She's auditioned for scores of work for Canadian Tire and never landed one.

She told me once that when she gets sent out for one she knows she's not going to get it ahead of time but they are obligated to give a diverse audition. Her agent sends her and it's a complete waste of time but she has to go anyways.

I'm thinking this about to change....
