NBC Compares Black Gymnast to a Monkey

They finally got it right for once.

d2bets · 08-04-12, 06:37 PM

Total coincidence. It was an ad for a new show that's been running for awhile.

Sunde91 · 08-04-12, 06:42 PM

They made their bed. They helped to create this insane PC culture now for some blow back. There should be lawsuits, fines, incessant public apologies.

iifold · 08-04-12, 06:47 PM

I fukkin can't stand the term "African American"...

Blacks should have shot this shit down years ago...

Looks like it is slowly fading away...

Now we just need blacks to start voting Conservative!!!

Bury these PC fukkers!!

NBC is obamas own personal televison station, this is not gonna look good that they are involved in a race scandal. I wonder if obama will say "the ad execs at NBC acted stupidly"

Seems to me that NBC did not compare anything.

Seems to me that you did.

Bingo.

Two completely unrelated things. Apologizing for that is ridiculous.

NBC forced to apologize after ill-timed ad features a monkey doing gymnastics - right after showing Gabby Douglas' gold medal victory

Angry viewers lashed out at the network on social media platforms like Twitter, accusing them of racism.

'Disgusted at NBC for showing Animal Practice with monkey right after Gabby wins her gold,' one user posted.

Closest thing to comedy that NBC has aired in years. Too bad it was an accident.

Sunde91 · 08-04-12, 07:45 PM

If a white gymnast won they would have shown the same commercial at the same time and there would have been no complaints. It is therefore obviously racist to show a black person on the same channel as a monkey.

The FCC needs to end the injustice and make some laws saying there must be a 1 hour period between showing a black person and showing a monkey on the same channel.

I don't know whose idea it was to air Planet of the Apes commercials during NBA games, but they need to be fired and fined $100,000. When Obama goes to the Zoo, cover up the monkeys or face jail time.

If we killed all the monkeys there wouldn't be a fuking problem.

And by monkeys I mean black people!

Have you ever made that suggestion to a black person's face or do you only choose to exercise your right to show your stupidity and racist hatred on anonymous message boards?

Her eyes are in the middle of her head.

Baskets has given his stamp of approval now we need beantown jim in here on this "issue."

Personally i see nothing wrong with costas statement or the ad being aired.

Carseller4 · 08-05-12, 10:28 AM

If I had a pet monkey it would look like the pet monkey in the ad.

I know the PC-trained who can't think dominates this thread... but let's take a moment here.

would there even be a comparison if one DIDN'T look like the other? the fact that it is an issue let's you know all you need to know about it's veracity. and if you cry like a baby that "no, it's because of comments in the past" .... well, hell, where do you think those comments came from?

for example, Swedish guy wins gold.... and then they run a commercial with a monkey after it. comparison? not in a million years

you PC clowns are so delusional it's funny. you won't admit what your fukking eyes are telling you, lol

d2bets · 08-05-12, 10:36 AM

That Animal Practice show should be funny with the guy from Weeds.
