A couple of days ago, I made a post on my facebook page  about the television show “Scandal.” At that time I admitted that I hadn’t watched any episodes, but  I understood the synopsis to be that Kerry Washington’s character is having an affair with the President who is a white man. Since making that post I have watched the complete first season and almost the entire second season, so that I could have a more informed opinion of the show. After viewing some episodes, despite the various other plots and “scandals” that take place, despite the faithful viewers trying to paint it as some love story of two people falling in love under difficult circumstances, my view remained unchanged.
