ABC Special Searches for 'Ugly Americans'

.
ABC aired an incredibly insulting and condescending hidden camera news special on Tuesday that purported to probe the hidden racism of Americans. It also featured actors hired by the network to go to France and portray "ugly Americans." The "What Would You Do?" special attempted to see how real people would react to racism or over-the-top behavior.

Quinones began the segment by cheerfully explaining, "Well, we all know the stereotype. The loud, clueless American, oblivious to French manners and culture, and the haughty French, who seem to relish putting them in their place." The walking stereotypes were clearly designed to be what members of the media see as Red Staters. At one point, the very loud Bob is decked out in a Dallas Cowboys jersey

Later, Bob can be seen with his pro-Bush shirt. An almost bemused Quinones narrated, "Apparently, not everyone is amused by our couple's t-shirts or their politics. This woman is German." The unidentified female derided, "This is nearly as if I had a t-shirt, 'I like Hitler,' you know?"

At no point did Quinones stop the woman or challenge her comparison of the democratically elected Bush to a genocidal murderer.
