I must say, my entire knowledge of America is ba
sed largely on sitcoms and movies. But that's only made me want to go there and travel :)
I have to admit, that due to media etc. I would (if I manage to get to the US) avoid the "redneck areas". Which is a shame because like anywhere there are bound to be lovely people and experiences to be had there.

easily led and satisfied to except a narrow view of an entire people rather than have to think about it. Part of the root for bigotry and racism. many nations are fed a negative and continuous flow of distorted news/programmes showing the west as all being sexually diseased and decadent to the point of madness. Just as many in the west are given the idea certain countries and religions are ALL evil and violent. Its a war of lies that too often leads to real conflict and thats when the innocent suffer.
