That assertion sounds extremely suspect at best. There is no evidence that GM foods cause autism.

Take your bullshit elsewhere, please. Thank you.

NOOOOOOOOOOVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAK!

Yes, the only reason I used Las Vegas as an example is because people don't associate it with the Jim Crow South.

I expect you're aware Sammy Davis Jr remained excluded as a customer from his performance venues long after 1960. I think it was on David Frost's show he said it still occasionally resurfaced and that would be the early 1970s.

Matt, I'm just curious why you wouldn't ask the creators of the series this question. I realize they may be dead, but surely there is some record of their thoughts on the series. Why share only your thoughts or inferences when there surely must be more source material that can illuminate the topic? I mean, if…

Animation has often blurred the racial lines a little in my opinion, which isn't a bad thing. For example, everyone got upset when they cast a white kid to play the Avatar in the last Airbender. In my opinion, the cartoon character always looked more white than anything else (If I had to define him, I'd say…

What do you mean by "people of color"?

Why are you implying that the American Dream can't be raising children? For some people (men and women) - it most certainly is.

I've covered sexism in the Jetsons as well: http://blogs.smithsonianmag.com/paleofuture/20…

Honestly they don't look that white either, they all look brownish , if this was based on the future couldn't all races just be mixed in to one ?

WAIT?????? you just spent 6 months of your life writing about the Jetsons?!?!?!??!?!WTF?!?!?!?!? you couldn't find anything more compelling? interesting? important? to expend your energy and talent(?) on?????

I wish my job was watching cartoons all day and finding something stupid to write about them. I've got a great idea for a piece about how Tom and Jerry represents the struggles of the working class.

Ok. So....how many?

I'd be curious to know exactly how many people in Matt Novak's life have asked him "where are all the people of color?" concerning a cartoon that is likely at least ten to twenty, if not more, years older than he is, and that presumably he had no hand in writing, animating, or producing.

I probably should've mentioned that I think "The Jetsons" is one of the most important TV shows of the 20th century and recently spent 24 weeks examining every episode, which is why I think this topic deserves discussion: http://blogs.smithsonianmag.com/paleofuture/20…

Its already on active duty. They continue to improve these things over the life of a program. The F15, which by all accounts hs been wildly successful is on its 5th major iteration, the F15-E. That is like saying the dream liner is a complete failure because it is a little late and was grounded for a few months. If…

The key word is developing, not developed. That means the performance of their craft isn't yet known. When they are developed and tested, then we'll have a better idea, but not before that. Until then, we are still ahead of the race. In fact, while they are working on an answer to the F-35 and the F-22, we are…
