I’m not entirely sure what Chinajan means because anything that determines acceptance or rejection on grounds of ethnicity is racist. In this case, television companies, having openly declared their intention to increase ‘diversity’ are making efforts to award jobs using that as their criteria. That is racist. Dave is right.

My point being the saturation of black people in all advertising gives the impression, one obviously intended, that we are a fully integrated country. Not so. There is racial diversity rampant, though unacknowledged in many strata of our society. But pretending it’s normalcy does not make it so. I just take issue with the unbalanced presentation.
As the percentage for black folk is only three percent, if there were ten folk in an advert, how many black folk would you allow, one or none?
Perhaps there would need to be different versions of every advert? Version A would have only non-black folk and Version B would have a black person replacing one of the non-black folk for example.
That way, they could show the two versions such that when the appearances are all added together, no more than three percent of the folk in them are black.
As this would have to be done for all the other minorities, there would need to be several versions of every advert.

I'm not calling anyone names - I just don't get it.
Like Gness, I see people on telly - I don't sit and count the tones and shades and jot down the numbers (would be tough anyway as I have partial sight).
Still, we all have different views, my point was that it's recently been debated on a very long thread in a more appropriate topic.
