    My assumption is, they figure it doesn't matter if they're describing someone physically... if they say Hispanic, it's assumed they mean "White" Hispanic... know what I mean? They never refer to anyone physically as Latino or "brown" or anything like that...

    Isn't that too politically incorrect though? I can't imagine CNN or ABC uttering that.

    There's no such thing here. Even Gypsy fellons rarely get labeled as such in the news reports.

    White, hispanic, asian, black...Others have said it. Pretty dumb of Australia to group euromeds with levantines, even though I have passed both groups as one or the other cos I am not a biased bitch. But still! Overall the two look different.
