(13,980 posts)where it talked about health concerns of dwarves? If you defy me to show that americans care about dwarves, you in effect make my argument, that mostpeople think of dawrves only in the tolkien sense, not people who already have to take a lot of crap, and who have scientific health concerns..
of course, you might want to explain your reasoning to Amy Roloff

and explain that some miniscule number of Americans watch her television show...it takes more than a miniscule amount of Americans to keep a TV show on the air, btw, especially for SIX SEASONS.
Now I am sure you will say this is not an example, and that once again, I have not shown logic, even though there is quite a lot of math to crunch when you figure out how ANY televison show stays on the air for more than five years. It's not like the network can hire several million people to watch the show.
Of course, there are these shows too:

and if you want specific example about how spreading bad ifnromation about dwarves can hurt them, the shows I mentioned do provide it in pratical terms, from the dwarves themselves (they prefer little people though, namely because a bunch of people use the term dwarf as an insult.)
