New KFC commercial is racist.

[Arctic-Zone]

I was just watching TV when a commercial for KFC'S new grilled chicken aired. Near the end of the commercial a black guy was holding a bucket of the grilled chicken and said "Yo, why you eyein' my bucket?" Racist or not? I think so.

Very Racist to black people, but why the hell do I care?

[InDuStRiEl]

I actually find that slighty funny.

Only slighty.

[wittyusernamehere]

[Prinzy2]

God forbid they they put anyone other than a white person on the T.V.

[OddlyPoetic]

I love how black people can't do anything anymore without someone crawling out of the cracks and screaming racist!

It's not like he holds up a bucket and says YUM I LOVE FRIED CHICKEN CUZ I'M A BLACK MAN AND THATS BLACK PEOPLES FAVORITE FOOD, OH LAWD!

In other news Castle Crashers is racist because white guys beat up black guys.

It's just part of marketing and business.

I don't know for a fact, but from common "observation" it seems like the highest demographic of KFC consumers are African-American, so they would put more African-Americans in their commercial to "relate" with the demographic, which might result in higher sales.

Totally agree, KFC carry out vast marketing surveys and test ads on test audiences to gauge a response.
African Americans, KFC and fried chicken in general is a common stereotype like Irish people and our fondness of alcohol.Watch any Guinness or any other Irish drink commercial and you get the same thing.

thats not racias (suck at spelling) at all its just a joke for kfc just because they have a commercail with an african american doesnt mean its raciest

[Themaster1700]

You are the racist. You are implying that black people like kfc. So, when you a black person with kfc, you think it's racist.

[Shadow1035]

It may have been a KFC commercial, but it was a grilled chicken commercial. Notice I said grilled. Besides, just because it has a black person in it holding some grilled chicken doesn't make it racist. If KFC had denied that person from being in the commercial because he was black and thought that idiots like you would get the wrong idea, that would be racist.

[Offgore]

Oh, great. Another racism topic.

[Halosheep]

Where's the guy with the Lemon Drank sig?

[ToastedCupcake]

That's not racist. Black people are supposed to like fried chicken, but this guy was holding grilled.

[MultiCanimefan]

In honor of this thread, move over lemon drank.

[Stretchysumo]

Oh no, a black guy in a KFC ad, whatever shall we do?

[NeonFlame126]

Prejudice, not racist.

[The-Great-One]

It's just a guy holding a bucket of chicken.

If you find it racist then surprise! You're racist!

stereotyping people and trying to blame the commercial...
tsk tsk tsk.

[Stoicish]

The black guy DID the commercial so he didn't find it very racist.

[Magik-Waffle]

The black actor wasn't offended to say the line. So I dunno.

Black people like fried chicken. They do. It's the truth.

[Deadchick]

I have not seen that new commercial actually, you got a link to it? :o

[AK-Elliot]

How about I go monkey shit crazy every time I see an oriental man on a commercial for chinese food?
Why classify food with race? It's retarded.

*facepalm*

[Spirosgod]
