Joy Behar’s Moral Quandary: 'Isn't it a Little Racist to Call it Black Friday?'
NewsBusters ^

Posted on 11/26/2012 7:32:56 PM PST by chessplayer

There's nothing like tuning into an episode of "The View" for a little exploration of social sensitivities in the modern American culture.

In keeping with that tradition, on Black Friday, a term used to describe the Friday following Thanksgiving, which is the beginning of the traditional Christmas shopping season, the use of the word "black" to mark this occasion was a topic of discussion on "The View" for its potential "racist" implications.

I wonder what her IQ is. No one it’s high. Joy Behar’s remark is so utterly stupid that it leaves us speechless.

How about African-American Friday?

Would that be more polite?

Joy, you twit... would it be racist to describe a dress as a “black dress” if that was its color?

So, if a company makes money, we can’t say it is “in the black?” Must it be “Green Friday?”

That may have been a lame attempt at a joke on her part, but she’s a total maroon!

to think the term has anything whatsoever to do with race, is pretty racist

So I’m guessing she doesn’t know why its called “black friday”.

Most years its the first day that retailers actually make a profit, they are in the red (or negative) up until that day.

She’s dumb, ugly, and has a rotten personality. Not much goin for her.

Well, one way to solve this “racist” issue is to get rid of the word “black” and everything associated with it.

It is an accounting term, something that brain dead liberals can’t comprehend.

Being in the black, making money.
Being in the red, losing money.

Isn’t it false advertising to call yourself “Joy,” Ms. behar?

It’s racist to be as fat as she is. Somewhere, there is an underprivileged minority kid going hungry because Joy’s fat a$$ ate the last bon bon

Notice how she is almost groveling for Goldberg’s approval. Thats probably why she mentioned it in the first place. To show Goldberg she is a “good” honkey.

So calling Black Friday Black Friday is racist. Eating white turkey meat is racist. Peanut butter sandwiches are racist. It never ends.
