In the 1980s and 1990s, the media covered crack cocaine use in a way that portrayed black, inner-city youth in a bad light, which may well have resulted in harsh and excessive penalties among a population that now is struggling to become a stable part of American life. In contrast, use of the drug ecstasy, which until recently has been associated with a more white, middle-class population, has not led to such a media frenzy. Both crack and ecstasy are illegal drugs with some negative side effects, so why might the media interest focus on crack cocaine and not on ecstasy?
