I honestly think this goes back to when Paula had Michele Obama on as a guest and insulted the first lady by mentioning that M. ate all the appetizers and then went for more. Paula is a democrat and supported O and loves, loves Jimmy Carter so I do not think she is a bigot only a southerner. I was amazed years back when walking with a couple of democrats from Jersey when they used the "N" word. Being from CA I learned it was not a word to use in any situation unless you are simply stupid. I think the south is slow to change some things.

LOL, I dont think she was sold when the lady who filed the lawsuit against the restaurant that part of her chain that her brother runs.

Two mistakes happen and first one was her lawyer in not coaching what she should or not say in her deposition.
The second is fire her PR team in releasing that horribly edited first apology.
The Queen of cooking is being burnt and Oprah would be a good stick of butter. I wonder if these two Southern millionaire ladies ever met.
OWN would be a good channel for Paula to end up on after this is old news in 2 years.
Paula net worth is $10 million.

Sorry. I forgot I was redirected to look into more information on the lawsuit. I have over 10 tabs open.
Here is article from a newspaper located in Georgia capital, I always try to look up local information for high profile cases in hopes of getting some truth.

4th paragraph down. Paula Deen documents offer details about lawsuit, racist assertions |
Online Athens

It states it was mention in her deposistion on the 17th of last month, I wonder why a month later this hitting the 'fryer' ?
