Paula Deen Today Show Interview (Full VIDEO)
So what did Paula Deen say to TODAY Show host Matt Lauer on her Wednesday interview? She said that she is not a racist; that as a businesswoman, she does not think her firing from Food Network was the right decision. In using the N-word in the past, she said that she was unsure whether it was offensive to black people.
Is Paula Deen racist? “No” she said. “I believe that … every one of God’s creatures was created equal. I believe that everyone should be treated equal, that’s the way I was raised and that’s the way I live my life.”
She also said this, “If there’s anyone out there that has never said something that they wish they could take back, if you’re out there, please pick up that stone and throw it so hard at my head that it kills me, please I want to meet you,” she said. “I is what I is and I’m not changing.”
