But "racist" is being stretched so thin these days it's completely losing all meaning.
Do you believe the word is being mis-applied in this specific instance? If so, please explain why.

Is anyone shocked by what Don Cherry said? I'm not. I am shocked that SN finally took action on the basis of the public backlash and fired him. Yes, it's something that probably should have happened a long time ago, but that does nothing to diminish the fact that ultimately this was the appropriate action to take.
