New KFC Ad Racist? You Decide

The ad in question is for the Australian KFC branch, which shows a cricket player in a crowd of West Indian fans. In an effort to get more comfortable amid the opposition, the cricket player offers up the KFC “crowd pleaser” bucket. However, Americans who’ve seen the ad via YouTube have called the ad extremely racist, where fried chicken and African Americans have long been a heated stereotype.

So you tell us, do you think this KFC ad could be considered racist? Obviously the ad wasn’t meant to reach the US market, and it received no negative response in Australia where it was originally added, but do the cultural stereotypes of one region pertain to another, regardless of significance?

Reports of a twitter argument turned foul are surfacing all over the internet, with reports stating that the argument lead to a murder, which will have New York police potentially subpoenaing tweets in the investigation.

Jameg Blake is accused of shooting and killing Kwame Dancy, both 22, with a shotgun blast to the neck. Blake has pleaded not guilty to the charges. The argument started between the two turned heated, as the first tweet was sent to Blake, stating:

““N—–s is lookin for u don’t think I won’t give up ya address for a price betta chill asap!”

In addition, Blake’s own Twitter account has an incriminating tweet which simply states “R.I.P. Kwame”, which was posted on December 3rd.

Facebook Terror Threat Has Serious Repercussions For Teens

Apparently a quartet of teens were arrested earlier this week for talks of blowing up their school on Facebook. The four New Jersey teens discussed using the gas main as a means for setting fire to the school. When another teenager alerted school officials, the school was evacuated and the bomb squad was called in to assess the school for any threats.

It’s still unclear whether or not the teans were serious, but they’re still being held in the Essex County juvenile detention center pending further investigation into the matter. Many students feel as though these four were obviously joking, but parents and other officials argue that its no laughing matter.

An anonymous poster via Facebook had this to say on one of the offender’s Facebook page:

“Why are kids so incredibly stupid? My friend’s son’s FB friend just posted a similar comment followed by ‘jkjkjk lolol haha’ on her son’s page. This generation of texting, sexting, tech-savvy-with-no-common-sense morons may well be the dumbest yet.”
