Tiger Target Commercials Start After NAACP Boycott

Didn't Tiger Woods, right, hear about the NAACP call to "stay out of Target stores" until further notice? The dispute is over the retail giant's ignoring the group's diversity survey. Well the NAACP's Annual Meeting was during the British Open. Or maybe Tiger just didn't get the memo. Is Tiger a member of the NAACP?

Bruce S. Gordon, left, president of the NAACP does not want to call it a boycott but he has warned Target to respond to the questions about its financial and employment practices, which the company has not done for the past two years. Anyway, it just looks kind of strange that right after the NAACP calls for a "stay out," Tiger advertises to go right on in.

We appreciate it too.

The Amateurs

The trailer for the upcoming movie, "The Amateurs," is hilarious. The film is about a small town that bands together to make a porno film. Jeff Bridges stars and plays a guy dealing with a midlife crisis who hatches the scheme. One really funny scene in the trailer shows them looking at the penises of three black men and somebody asks, "What nuclear power plant did your parents work at?" Now we don't mind that stereotype at AAEA and it promotes another potential benefit of nuclear power.

MTV is 25 Years Old Today : How Times Have Changed

MTV was born on August 1, 1981 and did not air a black video for the next two years until Michael Jackson integrated its airwaves. Of course, now MTV is down with dumb Hip Hop culture music and metal appears to be dead on its airwaves. We're just glad that rap stars have moved on to productive movie careers. Think Will Smith, Queen Latifah and Ice Cube.

Congrats MTV. Since 1981 Michael Jackson experienced technical difficulties, AIDS expressed itself, black-on-black murder metastasized and capitalism has provided an unprecedentedly prosperous lifestyle in America. Your progeny, BET, was even sold for $3 billion to Viacom.
