What a sad production. They only vaguely point at the issues.

1. I remeber seeing ads for it back during the primaries.

But it's CNN, I don't expect much above "pathetic" from them.

2. I don't think they call a show
"Half-assed Blacks in America". Maybe it's just me...

3. So what exactly are they on about?
I can't watch the tv at work.

4. They're trying to show what it's like to be black in America
But the reporting is so shallow and just tells stories, without having proof any of it has to do with race, or getting to the root causes of it.

6. Why is it on over and over and over again?
Seems like they are repeating it ad nauseum . I actually tried to watch a the one about women, but quickly lost interest.
