Thank you “such_a_fn_lady” bp, spends more time of bs, than anything else. Who cares about a chicken commercial, when our children are getting kidnapped. Brainwashed, and various other life or death issues. Whomever is responcible for giving you nimrod writers a job, should be pistolwhipped. Because clearly, you all dont have the common sense to speak to a broad public.

this commercial is fine they know black people like fried chicken so they made a spokesperson we can relate to and they are capitalizing from it…its not going to stop black people from eating thier chicken…

Umm News Flash- Everything about this country is geared towards racism. Glad you caught that 1 obvious example-but you skipped so many along the way-like the thousands of black prisoners in new orleans during the last hurricane that were executed and exterminated-reported by Cynthia McKinney. Wow-we worry about the wrong shyt. “Black ppl love chicken” more than most is a false stereotype we Choose to believe. I see just as many whites and non blacks chomping down on some chicken-but yet there are blacks that still r embarrased to pick up the chicken @ a buffet or luncheon with white folks-dumb as hell.

Umm, most meat eaters love chicken. Thats a more truthful-accurate consensus. Damn sheep-baah. They sell you a stereo-type-via commercials like these and you relate it to yourself because they tell you to-via propaganda. If we controlled the media-guess who’d be in that commercial with a chicken suit on being stereo-typed? Not a black woman-probably some trailor park white dude-but since trailor park white dudes own the media-we get the buck.

The bigger problem is the n*ggerish black folk who volunteer to participate in these acting roles for a few dollars. Its our own ppl that need to be checked. Like some1 said recently-dont get mad @ your enemy for playing his part-do you get mad @ fish for swimming-or birds for flying? They’re doing what they do. But what do we say about our own playing our own??

THERE IS NOTHING RACIST ABOUT THE COMMERCIAL I DON’T UNDERSTAND WE MAKE A BIG DEAL OUT OF EVERYTHING NOBODY SAYS TAKE SOUTH PARK OR FAMILY GUY OFF THE AIR AND THAT MAKE RACIST COMMENTS ALL THE TIME. I THINK EVERYONE NEEDS 2 TAKE A CHILL PILL 4 REAL

muthafukaz need to cut it tha fuk out EVERYTHING WE SEE ON T.V. THAT HAS TO DO WITH BLACKS IS NOT RACIST! stop being so sensitive

I do think that the commercial is geared to blacks and racist but I thought that maybe it was just me when I saw the commercial but when I seen this blog I’m like it isn’t just me. You don’t see KFC with those types of commercials.

Kolossus5klub hit it spot on.
but the first one up should have been with that one guy where they advertised his job@popeye’s was his life long dream or something. if the commercial was animated, it would have been uncle rukus tossing chicken in flour discussing how a negro like obama cant change great ol white america…yeah it was that bad lol

when they first started showing this commercial I remember thinking why did the actress even agree to aing such a role? But then I realize the bigger picture is that even in the 21st century we are still limited in our potrayal in the mainstream. They would NEVER offer Sandra Bullock, Jessica Simpson, or Miley a commercial such as this. The roles for black actors are still thugs, prostitiutes, jive talking coons and sidekicks. It’s still the “Hollywood Shuffle” y’all

well was it racist when Bruce Bruce was a spokesperson. Man grow up they know who they advertising to and who buy there product.

How ironic is this post, being that it was yesterday that I was sharing with a friend of mine that this commercial is vey questionable. I am not one to pull the racism card at every angle, but this commercial is a modern day creation of the past mammies, coons, and bucks.
