Perceptions and reality in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• America has elected its first female president. At least that’s the plan for next season’s FOX series “24.” Actress Cherry Jones (pictured above) will star as President Allison Taylor. The series has already depicted two Black presidents. So the show could be categorized as Un-Reality TV.

• Fred Goldman plans to request that a federal bankruptcy judge grant him the rights to O.J. Simpson’s cancelled “If I Did It” book. “This is the first opportunity we have ever had to take an asset from the killer,” said Goldman. The family of Nicole Brown Simpson is also seeking a piece of the action. There’s gotta be a reality TV series in the works with this scenario.

• Rappers Ja Rule and Lil Wayne were busted for gun possession in separate incidents on Sunday. For most citizens, Sunday is a day of rest. For rappers, it’s a day of arrest.
