It was a mistake - a slip of the tounge.

JFC. Let this go for cripes sake.
A well-qualified NYC Hospital administrator was fired one day into the job for saying "at last we'll find the n____ in the woodpile", referring to Harlem's Woodhull Hospital. Either everyone or no one gets a pass.

"A photo of Jim Hummel, the investigative reporter for the Providence Journal and host of “The Lively Experiment” of RI PBS, in blackface has emerged and was sent to GoLocal.

"The picture, which was posted to Facebook and tagged Hummel, included a comment from Providence Journal reporter Linda Borg who wrote, “Don’t tell the NAACP about this.”"

Stop reaching. She didn't mean to offend and she is not a racist.

I feel for her and think she just slipped her tongue, but you can't do anything wrong these days with race. That ends everything.
When I hear nuggets I think of that thing hanging off my cat's dodo hole.

If not I say give her a break. We all make mistakes.
If Ainsley on FOX made that gaffe on the morning show, the leftist mob would be attacking Christians and Conservatives relentlessly.

You have much more LOVE in your heart than they do brother.

WOW!

I know there are racists of all political persuasions, but this conforms with my observation of liberal elites often being hostile toward black people. They talk a good game, but rarely live the walk in my experience. In this case, she got caught talking the racist talk. Damn. This is sick.

I'm usually willing to give people the benefit of the doubt, but for that word to even be on the tip of your tongue for such a slip is pretty damning.

More on the incident:

Don't expect the same kind of outrage as you'd see if such a "slip" was heard on Fox News
I had to laugh!
Funniest danged thing I have heard in a while. Funny because you never know what kind of language we allow ourselves to use in private. And *someone* got caught.
Watch what you say, Folks! You are programming yourself as you speak.
