B402, Yes, America has come a long way since the '70s. Everyone should appreciate the success and worth in that.

"White Men With Guns"

Sadly, it makes further uninterrupted progress on such a racist past in America infinitely more difficult when a dangerous, dishonest, anti-American authoritarian individual such as Trump has enough support to be elected president. On that, the poll figures in one of your links wwere good to see.

And further progress also becomes ever more infinitely more difficult when you have a national broadcaster
as FOX News so unethical Putin and other authoritarian world leaders would be proud to have as their own.

This bit is good.

These are editorial choices

Brian Kilmeade kind of gave up the game on "Fox & Friends" Tuesday morning. "I thought when George Floyd was killed, we were going to be talking about racial equality in this country and George Floyd's life," he said. "We could not get to that because our first four stories were all about the massive destruction on the biggest cities." The control room cued up video of Minneapolis chaos from May 29, a week and a half ago. Kilmeade said "now people are looking around and saying 'What is the message again?'"
Well, the message from the video was that Minneapolis is in shambles. The message from the on-screen banner was about "THE THREAT OF ANTIFA." Other networks have found plenty of time to talk about racial equality and Floyd's life, so Kilmeade should look inward...
