Fox: Fair and Balanced and when it comes to Asians and sports, a little racist

Yeahhhhh.

That wasn't a well-conceived idea.

Now, if they'd done it with French students ...

(I keed, I keed.)

 

Even the joke was poorly executed. Everybody from California knows there are more Asians at Cal or UCLA than at USC.

Anybody involved with that piece should be fired.

 

Anyone who had anything to do with the production or airing of that segment ought to be fired. Jeez... who thought that was okay???

 

Maybe they are saving UCLA for a segment on the Mexicans.

Who are the realiest, real Americans anyway? Dutch? English? Irish?

 

Alaskan-Americans.

 

Iron Eyes Cody sheds another tear.

 

buh.. buh... buh... they apologized and everything...

Someone should find the guy from Fox who came up with this and make pee pee in his Coke.

 

Wonder if Brian Kilmeade and Dubya had a good laugh with it Friday when they teed it up live on F and F for Patriot Golf Day.

 

Hey, those good Asians help finance the social lives of many USC football players. Leave them alone.

 

Props to Fox Sports for giving the show a Shanghai Surprise....From LAT:

Fox Sports has canceled "The College Experiment" after the show aired a Pac-12 segment, shot at USC, that critics say mocked Asian students.

The segment was "clearly offensive and inconsistent with the standards FOX Sports believes in, and we sincerely regret that it appeared," Fox Sports Network spokesman Lou D'Ermilio said in a statement. He said the show would be canceled immediately.

The segment was first reported by the Daily Camera newspaper in Boulder, Colo., and quoted an ethnic-studies professor as saying that the segment was demeaning to millions of Asian Americans and perpetuates negative stereotypes of the minority group as foreigners.

D'Ermilio said the network is taking steps to make sure an "incident of this nature is not repeated in the future."

 

Nine times out of 10, I think people overreact and are hypersensitive about some of the stuff that "offends" people...

This was not one of those times. This was a "WTF were you thinking?"
