The segment in question was aired over five years ago but someone went digging, and I mean digging deep, to find something to be offended about. There was NO vilification of or racism towards Asians at all. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/ree-drummond-pioneer-woman-racist-wing_us_58c33bd5e4b054a0ea6ace09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a large difference between traditional buffalo wings and Asian style wings. There is no good reason to assume because you like one you will like the other. Also, a lot of people are very hesitant to try something new. I cannot stand her show but she has great recipes and I use them from time to time.

A woman claimed Dean used the N word 20 years before. Twenty years. This is the latest example of pathetic people thinking they can ruin a life, make money, get famous for a minute, and demonstrate they're stupid enough to think there is a constitutional right in this country not to be offended.

I am wondering whether or not this particular episode was shown there .. and if so whether it might have caused offence? Never heard anything from Asia about this so apparently not. Truthfully, I've never seen the show or even heard of it before this accusation came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Labeling is part of the madness? Strange how far people will go to defend themselves from being places within a group and labeled. It works as a counter control or reverse psychology. Control out of kaos tactic. Our generation needs a saying, "Sticks and Stones will break my bones but your labels will never define me". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
