In response to Only Arabic: When 'multicultural' media turns to racial profiling

Only Arabic?

Curiously, I see only Chinese text when the Vic bail ads come up while watching BBC or other English language programs on SBS. Not Arabic.

This is presumably because my SBS individual profile indicates I view many Chinese language programs on SBS. So I suspect the author’s experience is likely a matter of individual viewer profiling by SBS, not collective racial profiling.

Perhaps the author should seek confirmation or denial (and correction if appropriate)?
