This Week In the News


So today I’m going to change it up a little bit usually I try to just keep my blogs simple, but today I’m going to talk about so real things.  First I have to say all “Miami Heat fans stand up”…and if you still hating on Lebron James, you need to get a life coach (LOL).  Now on to a more serious matter I read today on the (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/06/23/paula-deen) Huffington post that the food network fired Paula Deen.  She was let go for racial discrimination, several employees have come forth saying that Deen and her brother consistently used racial slurs at minorities.  There was one of her employees, whom was consistently referred to as “my little monkey.”

Now I’m not going to lay judgment about her actions because the whole story has yet to come out.  Because people always say things out of anger, and such.  But if she did these things on purpose, well then I hope she gets help and learns to treat people better.  But when you get chance I say go read up on the article.

  1. Yeah Miami Heat!! I am a fan but I was not able to watch every game or even most of the series. I have been rooting for the Heat ever sense I moved to the Miami area, I may not be there anymore, but they have a soft spot in my heart! Come on people lets not be HATERS and lets celebrate what an accomplishment this is for them!

  4. I don't follow sports or entertainment news so it's good to see a little bit here and there. Huffingtonpost.com removed the 06/23 article you listed so I found this earlier article: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/06/21/paula-deen-fired-food-network-cancels-show-after-racism-scandal_n_3480517.html
