DUNKIN DOES RIGHT! REMOVES RACHAEL'S KEFIYEH

Dunkin has removed  Rachael Ray wearing the kefiyeh in an advertisement. Considering the great work they do for the troops I am inclined to believe they were manipulated by a pro-jihadi asshat on the staff.
Good on DUNKIN! Three cheers for Dunkin! (I was missing my cuppa)

Dunkin' Donuts Consumer Response to Rachael Ray Advertisement

Thank you for taking the time to contact Dunkin' Donuts regarding your
concerns about the Rachael Ray advertisement.  In the ad that you reference,
Rachael is wearing a black-and-white silk scarf with a paisley design that was purchased at a U.S. retail store. It was selected by the stylist for the advertising shoot. 
Absolutely no symbolism was intended. However, given the possibility of
misperception, we will no longer use the commercial.

I bet the store the "stylist" shopped at was urban outfitters. *SPIT*

Whatever is going on, Ray's scarf, and Arafats shawl are both ugly.

Why did the "stylist" give Racheal Ray a scarf in May? To wear with a T-shirt?

Someone needs to apologize for that to!

Dear Atlas and all, an update:

As of my fisking of the Urbanoutfitter's website today, I cannot see any black and white paisley scarves for sale. I can see many pretty models!

Sorry, i need to break that link up for it to work. The "equals signs" are part of it so cut and past the four parts into your browser.
