Shark Week...prepare to be cancelled!

‘Researchers’ Mocked Washington Post for Article Accusing ‘Shark Week’ of Racial Bias, ‘Overwhelmingly’ Featuring ‘White Men’


So-called “researchers” are being mocked on social media for accusing Discovery’s Shark Week series of lacking diversity and overrepresenting “white men” named Mike.

Lisa Whitenack, a biology professor at Allegheny College in Meadville, Pennsylvania, used to watch Shark Week every summer as a kid, as she has always had a love for sharks, according to a report by Washington Post.

But one day, Whitenack apparently honed in on the reality that most of the scientists on Shark Week were men.

“I didn’t see very many people that looked like me on television,” Whitenack lamented.

So in 2020, when lockdowns went into effect in response to the Chinese coronavirus, the professor decided to use that time as an opportunity to study the series. Whitenack then reportedly led a team of researchers to examine hundreds of Shark Week episodes that aired between 1988 and 2020.

The professor wanted to find out if Shark Week was giving its audience the wrong messages about sharks, and what type of people were studying the sharks on the show.

Last month, the Public Library of Science published a study claiming that Discovery’s programming has emphasized negative messages about sharks, lacked useful messaging about shark conservation, and overwhelmingly featured white males as the experts on sharks.

Additionally, many of these scientists were named Mike.

The real problem is that the most powerful shark is called "great white". That is triggering to marginalised communities.

What's going to be funny is how liberals are going to try to burn down everything that doesn't fit their agenda. They want to destroy everything people like. There really is only one, ultimate solution.

Bet you this Lisa chick has some Hebrew blood in her.

Getting eaten by an ancient apex predator is white privilege - 2022.

Boo fukking hoo? If you need people to look like you or else you can't identify with them as human fukking beings, thenyou might just be a racist!You're literally watching a show about sharks, you donut - who the hell cares about the people's skin color in the first place? That's like some next level racism, almost as though you could say theirevolvingevolvingdevolving.

God forbid these coddling kunts travel to another country where there's next to zero "diversity," extra emphasis there because god forbid people have diversity ofthoughtorlife experiencesinstead of literally which paint swatch you identify closest to at Lowe's.
I will stand firm, I refuse to kneel - The fury in me is divine

Words paint pictures that speak loudly. The use of words with racist, sexist, oppressive connotations, overtones, or history can make the reader feel hurt, traumatized, or unwelcome. With this in mind, non-inclusive content and reference imagery in Adobe's products are being replaced with those that reflect the company's core values of diversity and inclusion.

 

As part of this effort, in the latest version of InDesign (version 17.0), Master Pages have been renamed to Parent Pages within the application. 

 

Do let us know if you need more information.

Talk about marginalized....'master page' is an offensive term. You can't escape this clown world.

This is just another small step by the Globalists Powers that Be to destabilize the country. To divide it. And to eliminate it's morals and long standing culture.

All so that it can be more easily controlled. End of story.

I love how it's trendy to be condescending towards white people's names. I wonder if it'd be racist to do a study into how many people are named La-Quadarius in the rap scene.

How is this an acceptable thing to say? Who cares what they "look like" - it matters what they are doing. As individuals. So Racist (and sexist in this case).

This. The Great White shark is overrepresented on Shark Week. We need more footage of the Great Black Kang shark.

Modern day liberals doing racist things... like they've done throughout history. We have a president who said "you ain't black if you don't vote for me" and a candidate in 2016 that kissed a kkk member and called him her mentor.

So they just now noticing that black people dont want to swim with giant sharks in the ocean.

This person is supposed to be sort of expert we are supposed to listen to?

Man will they ever be shocked when they watch downhill skiing next time.
