The real demons here are the sponsors who dropped her at the drop of a name. There used to be some ethics in business that gave a little loyalty.
Really? You want to talk "ethics"? lololol!!!!! I'm sorry...but the word "ethical" does not compute when we're talking about stores continuing to sell products that are the brainchild of a racist. Lots of companies can sell pots and pans...it doesn't have to be Paula Deen. She's toast!
And the "demon" here is Paula Deen...she pushed her little pots and pans to stores that had faith in her and her name. Her name is now tarnished...the stores who are now dropping her are the ones who have been victimized. They're stuck with garbage that probably won't even sell at this point!
If I still had a store, I would feature her stuff
Well...good luck with that cause you may have a hard time dumping that shit at this point!
Her latest cookbook is #1 on Amazon best seller list and it hasn't been published yet. Her restaurants are packed from opening to closing. This controversy might be hurting whose who dump her more than hurting her.
Paula Deen is going about this all wrong. Her restaurants are popular, she should open more of them. She can self publish her books, have them printed in a free country like China, and direct sell them right along with her cookware. She won't even have to share profits with retail stores. At some point, all those stores losing money will want her back. This is nothing more than the Rush Limbaugh boycott part 2. His advertisers came crawling back but by then, they had already been replaced.
I've been following a paper in Savannah on this issue. Most interesting.
Ms Jackson is not considered highly from co workers from what I gather.
Well hells bells you have Jacksons lawyer caught tweeting "suing Paula Deen is a hoot" and Jackson herself under oath testifying that she never heard Paula ever say a racial slur.
Its a hit job that will unfortunately cost Deen millions with liberals driving the issue before they realized she was a good old Democrat.
