The Ontology of White Folk and the Media Connection

Funny, how problems are emergent when white folk are impacted. Take for example the current epidemic of homelessness and joblessness sweeping the nation. From previous reports, in news and popular culture, the macro levels of mainstream news production would have us think that the nation is at a crisis that just happened two years ago with the economic crash of 2007. The general populous is loosing their jobs and homes at alarming rates. Well, I offer a different spin on this problematic.
To be white and privileged in America a specialized must be met. There is undoubtedly a class dynamic which must be considered tangentially with the color caste system we employe. One must be considered in a higher tax bracket as well as be of a certain educational level to enable the benefits of being white folk. In America as we have illustrated previously white folk bask in the world of normality, being recognized as human by the ideological factories we have come to depend upon the social construction of our various realities. Chomsky refers to this as a propaganda analysis where eventually the information that is spread from the dominant forms of media relate to nothing more than a list of directives handed down from the top. The connectivity factor here is relatively simple.
People who historically have represented the underclass and lower class castes of society have been through crisis such as these considerably longer than the new tenants of poverty. Because the face of broke now looks like Mike and Carol Brady as opposed to James and Florida Evans, suddenly, to be underclass has the appearance of being human and now there appears to be a problem. It's almost like that quote in the book The Godfather which cites the legitimization of selling drugs in the community of the "colored." Paraphrasing, they are lost anyway, so it doesn't matter if drugs are sold in the ghettos. Its like when Hurricane Katrina hit, the Blacks who were seen on CNN and MSNBC were deviant criminals, looters and refugees. The hundreds of thousands of white folks are homeless and not vagrants or hobos. The politics of language and race in American society, particularly the news media in my honest opinion represents a powerful locus of social control. The dominant news media in our country functions as an agent for those who are in the power elite reinforcing the politics of humanity, race, and gender. In essence it concurrently remanufactures and redistributes the ontology of White Folk.
