NBC has been running ads for that show for quite some time. What does a monkey doing gymnastics have to do with Douglas?

It's the same thing as saying opposition to Bambi's Marxist, destructive policies is racist.

It's somewhat fun to watch a network who has excelled at this ridiculous "racist" meme get it thrown back at them in spades.........

oops, did it again

I see Gabby Douglas and I say, "That is a fine young woman who has put in the hard work to really excel at her sport."
I see a monkey doing gymnastics and I say, "Nice monkey."

A Liberal sees Gabby Douglas and says, "Black people look like monkeys."
A Liberal sees a monkey doing gymnastics and says, "Black people look like monkeys."

And we're considered the party with a "race problem"???
