I saw the add earlier today and 'racist' never crossed my mind. Like it or not, mixed black/white couples are not unusual anymore

I saw the ad, too--I thought it was damn funny and painfully satirical.

That's right. But the posters point, I believe, is that because it's accepted now, it's bizarre to say it's racist. And maybe I'm wrong but I think Ford has been linked to many white women. Nothing wrong with that. But if he often dates white women, then no one should complain if the ad used a white actress. Could some stone cold bigot be angry that Ford dates white women? Yup. But Mort's wrong to imply and anyone else is too that Tennessee is full of white bigots, or that the ad was meant to appeal to that sentiment. That too is an ugly stereotype.
