Racial Group Condemns Racial Grouping

Contestants on the next "Survivor" reality show on CBS are going to be divided into four tribes based on race. This has provoked outrage from all sorts of whiners. One is NYC councilman John Liu. We read of him:

"Liu, who is Asian-American, said he was launching a campaign urging CBS to pull the show because it could encourage racial division and promote negative typecasts. He and a coalition of officials, including the council's black, Latino and Asian caucus, planned to rally at City Hall on Friday.

So it's OK to divide councillors up on black, Latino and Asian racial lines but not OK for game show participants to be divided up in the same way??
