There's more to it than that. The incident in question involved a costume party or something and she apparently asked the black servers to dress up as slaves and didn't see the extremely obvious problem with that. Although I heard that on Entertainment Tonight, so take it with a grain of salt.
I hadn't heard that part. If that's true, then I can see there is a problem.

Do you guys remember Dsh's old series about launch titles and final games for a console? I miss that.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

The dressing of waiters like slaves thing did happen.

She's been exposed for what she is, a racist, and someone who looks down on everyone. Don't think that she doesn't say things like "Well those dumb fucks will keep watching my show if I keep putting sticks of butter in everything".

I've always disliked her, her sons, and her husband. Her schtick is so obviously fake, and "her" recipes blow.

All of my family and friends have known my somewhat hatred for her that the most common gag gift I receive is a Deen Cook Book (with receipt).

And her massively edited apology is nothing but damage control. No doubt at night she's thinking "Damn niggers done ruined my food network career".

I hope people boycott her shitty overpriced restaurants and products.

Okay. I think I'm done.

Just so long as we never have to look at that hideously photoshopped face ever again. Seriously. Every time I saw a picture of her, I secretly wondered whose skin she had ripped off to create that soulless death mask.

That's the 5th time you've brought up being 40, then 30 coins short. Please stop begging for them in multiple places multiple times. It is very annoying.
