All else aside, you know the network doesn't want to offend ANYONE, so as an employee she needs to understand that. I just see an overreaction mainly by the Al Sharpton types.

Actually, I think we're pretty close to being in agreement then.

I don't really get worked up by the Sharpton boys though. They do have a right to have their say, have it considered by the voting ( in this case with $$ ) public and let the community decide what the appropriate reaction should be.

If enough people in a community are willing to take their business elsewhere then what use is it to call them overreactors? It's their community. Just chalk it up to a place you wouldn't like to live. I know of lots of places like that for me. Nothing wrong with them but not my cup of tea.
