I was passing thru the range of 40-something channels, about to skip past BET, when I had to stop there and do a double, no triple-take. I'm still not sure I believe what I saw.
Here it is: A long-playing info-mercial fundraiser to send foreign Jews to their homeland - Israel. Not a big deal by itself, but the channel was 45, last I checked, GMP channel 45 was BET. Also, not a big deal by itself. But the commercial struck me as being out of place. So much so, I had to check the TV guide listing, which only read "paid programming".
Now it could be I've been living in a cloud for many years, and I may not be up to the minute in social/ethnic/race relations, but I do recall a story a few years back how there was more than a bit of tension between Afro-Americans and Jews. And this is why I needed the extra looks while surfing. The combination of BET airing :beingpaidby: a jewish info-mercial, and jews targeting, via BET, the black population for fundraising which benefits only Jews seems like the ultimate irony.
"for $350 send one..."
"for $700 send two..."
"for $1400 send four..."
"Russian Jews back to Israel"
Here they are
Did anyone else see this? Am I out of date on this?
