The two mannequins dressed as tourists are pretty “brown” as well.

I have a box of it at home and they are about the same color as the worker.

When is EVERY company that advertises on television going to stop being racist by depicting white people as the dufus, uninformed losers and black people as the successful, intelligent, well-informed professionals (usually always black doctors) when a commercial involves blacks and whites in it. Theres your racism.

The latest example. DirectTV commercial, shows a black couple sitting on the couch watching DirectTV, then it shows a white person paper cutting her tongue, a white guy getting his arm stuck in a vending machine, another white guy laying in poison ivy, and I forget the rest of it right now.

Just once I’d like to here of a company responding to this kind of complaint with a letter that politely says “get a life”.

I’m white and I’m offended that is doesn’t show lighter ones working; I live in a state (country, for that matter) where most work is done by white people.

I’m gonna start a cereal company, and we will manufacture a cereal called “N***** Lips”.

They’re LIP-SMACKIN GOOD!

::Ahmed’s tweet within hours, saying it was sorry and would be replacing the cartoon with something more sensitive.::

Like chopping off heads! How’s that for sensitive?
