MAD about Mad Men

Let me add that Mad Men has been doing a good job with setting the tone/style on certain social changes depending on the decade they are in during a season. It is quiet obvious they are trying to portray the racial indifference in the early 70's this season. So far they have failed because they are using 2012 PC to create it. During that era of time it be nothing for a Roger or someone like that to drop the N word in causal conversation.

Not to beat the purse issue to death but do you really think a young black lady growing up in the early 70's would have been that offended by what Peggy did? I am sure she had seen and been treated much worst.
