Watching the Dallas/Washington game with my grandmother, was playing around with the picture settings on my her TV and now it looks like this whenever they cut to Tom Brady in the booth, I don't know how to shut it off

august 11, 1945: benny and eddie anderson refuse to comply with the us army's jim crow segregation rules, and orson welles (of all ppl) tells them they should. welles comes across insufferably paternalistic here. also, bc jb listened to anderson, they had stopped doing race jokes years earlier.

The image is a full newspaper article from an August, 1945 issue of the Washington Afro-American.  Orson Welles chides Jack Benny for supporting Eddie Anderson's refusing to be treated badly by the US military.
