Death to America!Damn right-wing bloggers!
Rachel “Mosquito Bites” Ray is a spokesperson for the heart-smart Dunkin’ Donuts and her latest ad is at the center of some sort of odd controversy. It seems like some people view Rachel Ray’s scarf (seen above) to resemble a Middle Eastern keffiyeh.
That Bitch! We knew Ray was a little odd but we didn’t know she was part of the Taliban! Off with her head.
A scarf worn by foodie Rachel Ray in a photograph to be used for a Dunkin’ Donuts ad is at the center of a controversy Wednesday.The Boston Globe reported that the Canton-based company pulled an ad in which Ray’s scarf looks much like a keffiyeh, a traditional headdress worn by Arab men.
Ultra-conservative Fox News commentator Michelle Malkin on Tuesday was so incensed by the ad that there was even mention of a Dunkin’ Donuts boycott, the paper reported.
The company paid little attention to the hoopla on Tuesday, but, as Boston.com said, “the right-wing drumbeat on the blogosphere continued” and the company opted to pull the ad Wednesday.
The head of Dunkin’ Donuts didn’t stop there. President Timothy Horton stated that the coffee beans used in the shops will no longer be Arabica Beans but instead they will switch to the new “Freedom Bean.”
Now for good measure and no good reason, here are some pictures of Rachel Ray from her FHM pictorial.
