So I'm watching this documentary, "Class Dismissed," about how class is portrayed in the media.

4. Well, of those three you mention...

...the Cable Moron (sorry, I can't stand that guy) is pretty close to 'blue-collar' -- at least his parents work was the kind of thing I could reasonably expect to meet in a sub-$30,000 neighborhood. In fact, I personally know a farmer and a preacher on a personal level, and a school administrator is friends with my family. And my best friends late brother was a roadie with some high-profile musical groups. So its in the -realm- of believable...but don't take that as a defense of the idiot. Just a fair appraisal. Compared to the other two, he's passable.

But as to why people aren't insulted by it? They don't know. I could tick off at least 10 people I know who LOVE the BCCT right off the top of my head (at least 4 of which are in my extended family). Not one of them knows any of this about them, nor had I heard of it until this thread. Now, I'm not some great guru of knowledge or anything, but I do a lot more learning than most of my family, so if I don't know it, its REAL unlikely they do.
