Paula Deen fans vent outrage at Food Network for dumping celebrity cook over past racial slurs

VANNAH, Ga. — Watching Paula Deen’s cooking show was a weekend ritual for Marilynne Wilson, who says she’s furious at the Food Network for dumping the comfort-food queen after she acknowledged using racial slurs in the past.

“I was shocked. I thought she’d get a fair trial,” Wilson, a nurse from Jacksonville, Fla., said Saturday after stopping to buy souvenirs at the gift shop Deen owns next to her Savannah restaurant. “I think the Food Network jumped the gun.”

A day after announcing that it’s dropping Deen from its roster of celebrity cooks, the cable network was served heaping portions of Southern fried outrage by her fans.

She'll be back on the air within a year, either on the Cooking Channel or Food Network.

Everyone knows a good batch of fried chicken can only be improved by a stick of butter and a pinch of racism.

Kinda funny in that this Wiki article shows that the Food Network is owned by E.W. Scripps, which while itself is broken down into two publicly-traded companies, is known primarily as news affiliations for:

ABC
NBC
one independent, then something called "Aztec America"

Personally, I would love to see Oprah pick her ow for her OWN network.  The publicity would be symbiotically beneficial and let's face it, it would be a great story about practicing what you preach.  Besides,  I read that Oprah was her TV mentor

Oh, really?

I read that she was discovered by Gordon Elliott in doing "Doorknock Dinners."

You see, here, the principal difference between me and you is that I post support for my assertions. You're full of bullshit.

"I read that Oprah was her TV mentor" emulation is not defined as discovered -do you require a dictionary link?

Do you not understand the term "inference?"

You post shit -- ANY shit -- without substantiating it.

I live near Savannah (get all my local news from Savannah stations); and I'm sick of hearing about this crap. I never cared for her fake "y'all"...and it's fake...believe me. Her food is nothing I haven't eaten at my grandmama's table for years.

You opinion has been held in low regard 1544 times -lol

Ah, another one who is all ga-ga about the bitchslaps!   

If you'd bother to look about you, instead of planting your cute little nuggets of feces here and there, you just might see multiple threads about that cute little toy that we've got.

But, you're too focused on yourself.

Oh, btw. Bitchslapped just because your ass got called on your bullshit, now you're all butthurt.

It's okay, hon. The pain goes away after awhile.

Everyone knows a good batch of fried chicken can only be improved by a stick of butter and a pinch of racism.

Paula Deen's cooking secrets:
1. Substitute butter for oil, shortening, lard, or grease.
2. In any recipe actually calling for butter, double the amount of butter. The excess will sweat off.
3. Substitute heavy whipping cream for milk or water.
4. Substitute molasses for sugar, corn syrup, or honey.
5. Never user non-stick cooking spray. All pans must be greased with butter.

She's a freakin' socialist Obama follower. Of COURSE she will get her own show back somewhere.

She's a freakin' socialist Obama follower. Of COURSE she will get her own show back somewhere.

But she's getting mugged quite liberally by her lib brothers and sisters. She might end up as a conservative.
