FOX news has little to none, Americans of color on any of their commercials

Has anyone taken the time to analyze this? When I watch CNN, MSNBC, CBS ... cable news, during prime time they run commercials with plenty of diversity that reflects our society as a whole. NOT FOX, the white supremacist channel.

I remember when minorities were never seen on the TV. In fact, my sister babysat for a family down the street and the father would yell to change the channel if a black person was on the screen. FOX keeps the stank going.

They aren’t necessarily racist for doing this, the people who watch them are and they act accordingly. The only color they care about is green.
