I agree with ya. NBC is totally stereotyping nascar fans and going out of thier way to find some racist hicks. Doesnt sound like they did very well, even when going out of thier way to find them!

Ok, I actually read the story on the NASCAR site.

What NBC was doing isn't "making news" it's called investigative journalisim and it's done all the time.

Is the profiling of NASCAR fans unfair? Perhaps, but to be honest if I was looking for a negative public reaction I can't think of a better place to start
