Re: Cheerios commercial's racist backlash
i don't get why msnbc is apologizing. FOX wouldn't apologize for saying something racially insensitive or besmirching liberals.

Not pointless! Controversy = website traffic = $$$.

Cheerios are racist against non-circular letters.

Re: Cheerios commercial's racist backlash
Cheerios support the letter "o" and biracial people.
It's a conspiracy engineered by Obama!

Re: Cheerios commercial's racist backlash
If there's anything offensive, it's the commercial with Buzz. "Swag" needs to stop.

Re: Cheerios commercial's racist backlash
Too many biracial people would cause the apocalypse.
These people wouldn't know whether eat more mayo or do the dougie. That confusion will lead to the overthrow of government and mass cannibalism. Wake up, America.
