This reminds me of a funny and ironic situation that occurred at my parents house a few years back.
About 18 years ago my sister was dating an African American. He was over at my parents house and I was watching MTV. We were discussing the fact that Michael Jackson was the first black artists to get any significant air time on MTV. (They happened to be playing some rock video at the time.) He then turned the channel to CMT and as he was turning, he stated, "this station never shows any black artists". Immediately after he turned the station to CMT they happened to be playing an Aaron Neville country video.
