Rachel Ray/Dunkin' Donuts Ad Pulled
Rachael Ray ad pulled as pundit sees terror link

Malkin claimed scarf similar to those worn by murderous Islamic extremists




Dunkin' Donuts pulled a television spot featuring talk show host and Food Network personality Rachael Ray this weekend after a Fox news commentator associated it with terrorists.
In the ad, Ray is wearing a scarf that Michelle Malkin said in her nationally syndicated column resembled a kiffiyeh, Middle Eastern garb that is "popularized by Yasser Arafat and a regular adornment of Muslim terrorists appearing in beheading and hostage-taking videos."
Dunkin's Senior Vice President for Communications Margie Myers issued a statement saying the scarf "was selected by a stylist for the advertising shoot. Absolutely no symbolism was intended.

"However, as of this past weekend, we are no longer using the online ad because the possibility of misperception detracted from its original intention to promote our iced coffee."
In her column, Malkin also noted that it could appear at times that actor Colin Farrell, rapper Kanye West and Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean have been photographed in similar scarves that were "distinctive hate couture."

Re: Rachel Ray/Dunkin' Donuts Ad Pulled
Rachel is always a snappy dresser and a fab cook. I don't think she meant anything by wearing the scarff. Furthermore, she was in a professionally made commercial. They have people that pick out thier clothing for those things???? I think it a bunch of BS.....IMO

Re: Rachel Ray/Dunkin' Donuts Ad Pulled
Why in the world was she wearing a scarf with a very short-sleeved, low-cut blouse ? In my long life, I've never seen such ....... Obviously, we should investigate whoever picked out her clothes.......not for being sympathetic to terrorists but for grotesquely bad taste.........maybe she's covering up a "hickie"

Oh Saddlebum, you are hilarious....."hickie"....That would be a good assumption considering she is kind of newly married. Who knows? Who cares?

People should leave her alone.
