Default Stop the presses! Black people like Martin Luther King more than white people do!

Quote:
Some late-breaking but very important MLK news moved on the AP wire last night, and we feel we must interrupt our regular, post-MLK Day programming to bring it to you:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Blacks are more likely than whites to commemorate Martin Luther King’s birthday, an AP-Ipsos poll found.
While we now eagerly await polling data in two weeks on whether Chinese-Americans are more likely than other groups to celebrate the Chinese New Year, we also find ourselves sad that we missed last month’s results on whether Jews or gentiles are more likely to celebrate Christmas. It was, we’re sure, revelatory stuff.

It also depends on whether they get the day off work in the USA.

I hope they didn't spend a lot of time on this poll.

I read this article yesterday. Stop the presses was my first thought as well.

Although, as a whitey, I really like MLK. Sure he dogged around on his wife but he also helped change the world, something I always have great respect for.
