I love you Keith, but you really stepped in it by opening the "look – all White people!" Pandora’s box.
And because it’s so hard to find the demographic makeup of the "Countdown" audience (and "The Daily Show" audience, for that matter) by race (plenty of cross-tabs on age, sex, and income though), I’ll let the honcho himself point me to the data - or one of his helper elves.
How many African-Americans watch "Countdown"? How many African-Americans watch "The Daily Show"? Absolute and percentage.
My guess is it’s an audience makeup that’s not quite as bad as a hockey game audience (see you haven’t called out hockey as racist yet, Keith), but not much better.
Can anyone point me to this data? Thanks!
