Couples in Advertisements

After the video last week, I decided to be more aware of portrayals of women in the media. In being aware, I noticed something else interesting - advertisements only show same-race couples. I have yet to notice any couples that transcend racial boundaries - black men are married to black women, white women have white boyfriends, etc etc. Is this just a reflection of our society? Or of what the media CEOs think our society should be like?
Is this okay?
