Fox Sports Cancels Show That Made Fun of Asian Students
Recently the Fox Sports show The College Experiment did a segment (above) in which they basically said Asian students at USC are weird foreigners because they don't care about football. Well, they will be not be making fun of anyone, of any kind, anymore.
The hook or the gag of the bit seems to be that, ha ha, silly Orientals don't know anything about good old all-American football. So therefore they are a strange and mysterious peoples who are not Americans like Joe McWhitesuit with the mic. Which, OK, maybe the Asian kids shown in this video don't know anything about football, but lots of people don't know anything about football, and lots of Asians do know things about football! There is just no joke here!
Hey guys, USC has a pretty big acting program, why not go ask some theater kids to talk about the Trojans. You'll likely get a lot of blank stares and a few hissy condom jokes. Anyway, the point is that this segment was stupid and made no sense and was really pretty offensive, so now Fox Sports has taken action by cancelling the show, saying that the bit was "clearly offensive and inconsistent with the standards FOX Sports believes in, and we sincerely regret that it appeared."
So, sucks to be you, College Experiment staff who let through a shitty joke made by a few people and are now all out of a job. Blame the Asians! Though they're probably too busy playing violin and doing math problems to have any idea what you're talking about. [LAT]
