Dunkin Donuts to pull Rachel Ray Advertisement
BOSTON — Dunkin' Donuts has pulled an online advertisement featuring Rachael Ray after complaints that a fringed black-and-white scarf that the celebrity chef wore in the ad offers symbolic support for Muslim extremism and terrorism.
The coffee and baked goods chain said the ad that began appearing online May 7 was pulled over the past weekend because "the possibility of misperception detracted from its original intention to promote our iced coffee."
In the spot, Ray holds an iced coffee while standing in front of trees with pink blossoms.
Critics, including conservative commentator Michelle Malkin, complained that the scarf wrapped around her looked like a kaffiyeh, the traditional Arab headdress. Critics who fueled online complaints about the ad in blogs say such scarves have come to symbolize Muslim extremism and terrorism.
The kaffiyeh, Malkin wrote in a column posted online last Friday, "has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad. Popularized by Yasser Arafat and a regular adornment of Muslim terrorists appearing in beheading and hostage-taking videos, the apparel has been mainstreamed by both ignorant (and not-so-ignorant) fashion designers, celebrities, and left-wing icons."
A statement issued Wednesday by Canton, Mass.-based Dunkin' Brands Inc., however, said the scarf had a paisley design, and was selected by a stylist for the advertising shoot.
"Absolutely no symbolism was intended," the company said.
Dunkin' spokeswoman Michelle King said the ad appeared on the chain's Web site, as well as other commercial sites.[/quote]
....and so on and so forth. Yeah, Dunkin Donuts is the American front to the global jihadist terror network. Please.

| | Ah yes, Krispy Kremes donuts DO look like the ring emitting from a nuclear blast. The delicious white, flakey outside symbolizes the radioactive fall-out covering the ground after a nuclear blast. Need more proof? There is none more damning and obvious than THIS, my friends. 
Note the color scheme and the colors chosen by Krispy Kreme to respresent their donut republic. Green, white and red. Innocently chosen, right?
WRONG! These are FAR from innocently chosen colors!
 Thats right, my friends. If you eat a Krispy Kreme donut, you are supporting Iran's nuclear ambitions. If you love freedom, eat a hamburger. If you hate your country... eat a Krispy Kreme donut. |
