Paula Deen is attempting damage control with a new interview with Matt Lauer on Today. She’s been dropped from the Food Network and has lost multiple sponsors and business partners due to her use of the n-word, and in her interview on Today, she tearfully explains her actions. Deen admitted to using the n-word during a deposition for a lawsuit brought against her by a former manager of a restaurant run by Deen, and since giving that deposition her public image has been severely damaged.
On Today, Deen said she never intended to hurt anyone with her words. Deen says she’s not racist and added, “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.”
