How should the people handle the food networks firing of Paula Deen?

I rarely tune in any of the cooking channels! I find them idiotic to the max!

However, I will be definitely be on the hunt for the PD cookbooks I do not currently own!

I recommend you read the transcript of the hearing.

If I were in her shoes I would be saying all kinds of unladylike words and not just that one. And the little *itch who prefered charges of bad language should be slapped until she is ready to concede she is partially to blame for being employeed at any of the PD establishments. And I recommend that PD get really selective about employees and make them mad sooner and see how they respond.

Most kitchens are a family!! Not a bunch of crybabies who get insulted easily!!

Since the food network is part of most basic cable packages it isn't practical to stop our cable altogether Instead, what we need to do is write, call and be as vocal as possible to those in charge of the network. We need to let those responsible know how stupid we think they are. Paula Deen has done nothing close to deserving what she got. With enough negative PR, hopefully they will reconsider.

Here's a contact form to email one of food network's parent companies:

The Food Network is a money making enterprise. They will do what they think is necessary to make a profit. If they feel they have made a good decision to make a profit they will do it. Public opinion drives their profits. She is under contract and any person who works for them realizes they do not have permanent contracts. One person's opinion will not make a difference at the end of the day. Every person has a choice of any program they wish to watch or not watch. This is a constitutional right. If you don't want to watch, don't.

Well, as an intelligent person I feel Paula Deen should have been dropped years ago.

Her recipes are horrible. The are they kind of stuff a high school Home Ec student comes up with not a professional chef. And her rating have dropped over the last couple of years, which is why she has been desperately doing the morning show circuit.

A hamburger with fried eggs, bacon sandwiched between Krispy Kreme donuts, French Fires with Mayo dressing, Taco Soup made entirely from canned ingredients and store bough taco seasoning packets, Layered Taco Dip, fried pork chops with potatoes and white gravy, a "homemade cake" recipe that calls for boxed cake mix. Really? Anyone touting those recipes does not deserve a multi million dollar contract tv show.

Seriously really? Food Network is part cable and besides I don't think people will stop The Next Food Network Star over this. It will blow over in the few days and people will forget and move on until the next story happens

Where do you get this idea you can "drop" the food network?

You pay one price for cable just like everyone else and nearly all the money goes to the sports channels.

You will lose all of your channels

Leave it alone and it will all blow over.

She s a racist
