NBC, its spawn MSNBC, and CNN constitute the "rightwing news media?"

I think someone else posted the photo, not Paula Deen. People should get off of her back already. She's been 'punished' enough for the last incident.

Until she is put in front of a firing squad, liberals will never be satisfied. They are the truly intolerant ones.

A Social Media Manager did the posting without Ms. Deen knowing it and was promptly fired by Ms. Deen.

Everyone who's offended can now go about their daily routines...

Paula Deen fires social media manager over photo posted of her son in 'brownface'

No kidding. There is nothing here offensive. AT ALL.

It really fries me how people just TRY to find something to call racism.

Ever met a racist comment, or person, you didn't love? How about a molesting hillbilly holy roller megafamily? ...nah. I didn't think so.

FYI - Deen voted for Bill Clinton - twice. Still like her?

Whether I like Deen or not has nothing to do with this entire situation. I've never met her personally but why would that matter. If something is racist or not has nothing to do with who the person voted for. Does that confuse you?

Not one person should find this offensive, unless of course you dislike the I Love Lucy show from the 1950s. I see absolutely NO racial statement at all.
The left is losing all sense of humor and they say the people on the right are prudish......this is the most ridiculous thing to complain about!

You'd have to be completely brain dead to go thru what she did & then repeat it. I just shake my head.
Excuse me - your own prejudices are showing.

Pot, meet kettle.
