The document provides 5 examples of racism in media: 1) the lack of African American characters in the TV show "Friends" despite its New York setting, 2) Disney movies often portraying villains with darker skin than heroes, 3) the "N" word being allowed on TV more than less offensive words, 4) a Mountain Dew commercial showing a battered woman identifying her attacker from a lineup of only African American men and a goat, and 5) many comedy shows relying on racial stereotypes for jokes.
