    I know . . . just not fair being white. What society needs is some white activist to stand up for all the unfairness white people go through in our society.

    There are already white people channels, The Hallmark Network and A&E come to mind. And a simple google search will show there are white people dating sites.

    ABC, NBC CBS and FOX already beat you to #1 on your list. Some Christian meet website beat you to #2.

    I believe this is not true. I've seen plenty of other races on those channels.

    And everyone that is Christian is not white. Unless you are saying the site is called ChristianWhitePeopleMeet.Com or some shit.

    I specifically want my things called what I said, but we all know only the other races can do that, because as a previous poster said, we'd be considered racist. (I actually think its really funny .. :) )

    I mean what can they put there now? No retailer is going to be as upscale as Nordstrom. Target may work out and would probably be good, although a traffic nightmare. Other than that, if the other major anchors start leaving that mall could be going down the total shitter.

    What are the top ten shows on primetime? What networks produce them and which shows have predominately white cast members?

    I don't know the answers to these but my guess is the major networks have the top shows and that the cast of those shows are predominately white if not all white. Of course there will likely be the token black person on the show, but rarely are they the stars of the show.

    This is big news! I don't care what Nordstrom or anyone else says, no company wants to close a store. Especially big company's that have been around for a long time.

    Psst... There are white people on BET. Are you really asking for a channel that only shows white people or are you asking for channels that targets a white audience?

    TV shows and networks are all about targeting demographics for ratings. You really don't think they target white people? White people are the largest and most lucrative demographic out there. You know advertisers are asking the networks for the demographic ratings in these areas.

    I've hated Nordstrom's since 1988, when they sold the Seahawks to Ken Bering. The team started circling the bowl as soon as Bering took over. (His fav player was Brian Bosworth, for crap sake)

    Nordstrom's can bite me.

    The managers of the Lloyd Center mall said its owners would buy the anchor space Nordstrom will vacate early next year and wrap it into a recently announced renovation plan.
    Cypress Equities did not elaborate on plans for the space, currently owned rather than leased by Nordstrom, but it's not likely to be another 149,000-square-foot department store.
    "We believe the Nordstrom building might better serve Lloyd Center shoppers if it featured alternative uses," Chris Maguire, Cypress' chief executive, said in a statement. "Our leasing team is exploring other retail and service options that will not only complement the mall’s existing merchant mix, but provide our shoppers with unique offerings not available at other Portland-area shopping centers."
    It said an "exciting announcement" about the plans would come later this year.
    The terms of the transaction weren't disclosed, but Cypress said it would take possession of the Nordstrom place in January 2015, when the store is expected to close.
    Last week, Cypress announced plans to remodel two of its exterior entrances to open the mall to pedestrians.

    This mall ought to be torn down.

    Same with the 2nd biggest eyesore in the Lloyd District - The Doubletree Hotel.
