current state of the “African-American Market for Cable and Broadband Services,<br />

Programming and Technology” explains, “In 2000 the black/African American<br />

population of the US was 34.7 million. This population is projected to increase by<br />

10 million by 2010 and to double by the year 2050, fueled both by natural growth<br />

and by increased immigration from Caribbean and African countries. The<br />

black/African American market is largely urban, with 81% living in urbanized<br />

areas in the US and almost 60% living in urban cities. African Americans in urban<br />

areas have consistently been some of the cable industry’s best customers, spending<br />

more per month for cable, local and long distance services, and subscribing to<br />

premium channels at higher rates than any other ethnic or racial group. The<br />

African-American ‘community’ is not monolithic—it is culturally and economically<br />

diverse. In this highly competitive multichannel and increasingly digital environment,<br />

understanding the African-American market in all its complexity and potential<br />

will be essential for successful programming, marketing, acquisition and<br />

retention of these valuable customers.” Horowitz Associates, “Focus: African<br />

America II Prospectus,” 2007, http://www.horowitzassociates.com/faapro.pdf. A<br />

similar research project covers Hispanics/Latinos. “Focus: Latino VII Prospectus,”<br />

“Nutritionists,” Johnson notes, “warn that the drinks, laden with caffeine and<br />

sugar, can hook kids on an unhealthy jolt-and-crash cycle. The caffeine comes<br />

from multiple sources, making it hard to tell how much the drinks contain. Some<br />

have B vitamins, which when taken in megadoses can cause rapid heartbeat, and<br />

numbness and tingling in the hands and feet. But the biggest worry is how some<br />

teens use the drinks. Some report downing several cans in a row to get a buzz,<br />

and a new study found a surprising number of poison-center calls from young<br />

people getting sick from too much caffeine.”<br />
