"You think the Sopranos was real?"

*I never said that!!!

Oh boy..here we go?!! Did you read the article I just posted. Simon created The Wire Kool-Aid and most folks are over-dosing because you claim this man's work as some grand masterpiece..GTFOH!!! What historical perspective are you talking about??

America loves to see Black pathology!!

I remember many folks came to Simon multiple times and asked him to write a season around "racism in Baltimore" and how it's the 10,000lb. pitbull in the room, he refused. Many natives, who really know the history of this city, knows that racism plays a strong component on how things are done in this town. Read: Antero Pietila's Not in My Neighborhood: How Bigotry Shaped a Great American City for further insight. People have concluded, that he can write about all this other shit, but skate around certain peripheral things.
