Isn't he the fellow with the radio show?

My radio is rarely on - and the last time that I listened to it - the Dodger's game was being broadcast.

You seem confused,

This whole "controversy" sounds like free publicity for Cheerios. Think of the millions of "free" views the commercial has gotten from this silliness.

im not a regulation guy, but im getting there with the internet. im tired of reading crap like this from mainly white males who are so jealous of a black guy with a white woman. im glad cheerios isnt backing down.

Yep, how dare someone have the audacity to have/express a view that conflicts with your own. We should string up every white male and let them swing from a tree until they stop kicking.

It's just a cereal commercial...not really a big deal.

You'll always have a few hateful people.

What is the rate of hate crimes against mixed race couples in the US?
