Ever Notice The Prominence Of Red Neck Bubbas On Television These Days.
Seems like there are more red neck bubbas on commercials and other programs. They are either obese with facial hair, wearing bib over all jeans, or have characteristics of the southern red neck truck drivers.

6. Nope. Can't say that I have. Can you give some examples,
with enough detail so they can be checked? What programs? What commercials? Just a few names will do, but "prominence" would seem to indicate that I should have noticed them, since I do watch television sometimes.
Just checking your premise here. If you can give me some examples, then I might agree with you, but I've not seen what you describe.
Wait for it...

7. Why not turn your TV set off?
Read a book or take a walk.

This writer really needs to come up here where the roads are full of long haul drivers all over from way down in Dixie to the mid west have to pull over when they hit New England and put on a white shirt and a tie.
Yup even the logging trucks have the drivers neatly dressed as do the drivers of the trucks to pump out the septic tanks. So kind of a Fed. law about commerce that requires anyone driving any kind of truck to look presentable.
Horror story's of truckers stopping at weigh stations and being checked for dirty fingernails.

TMN does have a point.. Sort of.
I've noticed a lot of commercials featuring 'stereotypes' of southerners - and I can only speculate its because of the runaway success of Duck Dynasty.
Hell, the latest involved digging The Dukes of Hazzard out of mothballs. (minus the Confederate Flag and 'General E Lee' painted on the roof.)

Where TMN goes wrong is that the 'rednecks' aren't portrayed as "Bubbas" (By which I infer he means "morans" )

TheMastersNemesis really needs to put his foot down.
Which foot you ask?
The foot.
