Next  Slide                         Previous Slide                       LOS ANGELES –  The bad news seems to never  end for Paula Deen.
In the latest defection following her admission last week that she had used  the N-word in the past and once planned a slavery-themed wedding, the country  cooking queen's book publisher has jumped ship.
Ballantine Books canceled a deal with her for multiple books, including an  upcoming cookbook that was the No.1 seller on Amazon.com and Barnes &  Noble.com.
The publisher said Friday it would not release "Paula Deen's New Testament:  250 Favorite Recipes, All Lightened Up," which was scheduled for October and was  the first of a five-book deal announced early last year.
Interest in it had surged as Deen, who grew up in Albany, Ga., and  specializes in Southern comfort food, came under increasing attack.
Ballantine, an imprint of Random House Inc., said it decided to cancel the  book's publication after "careful consideration." It had no comment beyond what  was in its brief statement, spokesman Stuart Applebaum said.
Sears and KMart announced earlier Friday that they would no longer carry  Paula Deen cookware or any other of her products. Target announced Thursday it  was severing ties with the former TV chef, while shopping network QVC announced  it was "taking a pause" in its relationship with Deen.
"After careful consideration of all available information, we have made the  decision to phase out all products tied to the brand," a rep for Sears Holdings,  which owns both Sears and KMart stores, told FOX411.
A Target rep said Thursday they had "made a decision to phase out the Paula  Deen merchandise in our stores as well as on Target.com."
Diabetes drug maker Novo Nordisk also said on Thursday the company and Deen  had "mutually agreed to suspend our patient education activities for now."
These companies join Walmart and Caesars Entertainment (Wednesday),  Smithfield Foods (Monday), and the Food Network (last Friday) in the list of  companies no longer doing business with Deen.
But not everyone is running fast in the other direction.
The fate of her magazine “Cooking with Paula Deen” remains unknown. Its  Alabama-based publisher Hoffman Media told a local news outlet that it “does not  condone discrimination of any kind,” adding "we are not in a position to discuss  her magazine and contract right now.” Hoffman Media did not respond to a request  for further comment.;
And Deen's annual “Paula Deen Cruise” on board the “Mariner of the Seas” has  been flooded with so many calls, the cruise is adding an extra departure in  2014.;
"Due to so many requests from Paula’s fans in the past we are actually  planning two cruises for 2014 and look forward to both," a rep for the cruise  told FOX411's Pop Tarts column. "It’s always an amazing time with Paula, her  family and fans.;If she goes – we go."
Deen, 66, is also still scheduled to make appearances at the Metropolitan  Cooking and Entertaining Show in Houston and Dallas in September, and in  Washington, DC in November. She remains a key personality on the website with  tickets to see her specifically ranging from $95 to $500.
“Paula Deen has been a friend of The Metropolitan Cooking & Entertaining  Show for many years. She has apologized and we are taking her apology at her  word and moving forward accordingly,” the show's rep told us. “The Metropolitan  Cooking & Entertaining Show does not condone or believe in the use of  derogatory slurs by anyone. This is a nation of forgiveness and second chances.  In that spirit we intend to go forward with the MetroCooking Shows in Houston,  Dallas and Washington, DC as planned with Paula as a presenter.”;

I don't cook like anything like her, and my wife is a vegetarian. However,  I may need to buy any new book of hers.

Wait a minute, Paula Dean supported Osama?  If that is a fact then she's on her own.  However, seeing the stupidity that has befallen her, it almost makes me want to go out and utter some really nasty racial slurs in sympathy.  Ah heck I think I'll do it just to make me feel better.

So the Ni... er I mean blacks finally found their Southern WASP Cracker to take out all their frustrations on.  Give me a break the offense took place over 20 years ago in the deep south (another culture from what we are living in today.)     

Can anyone here find me one white over the age of 45 who never in their lifetime ever uttered the "N" word?   For that matter find me one Black over the age of 45 who never, ever used the word "honkey", "whitey" or "cracker" in reference to a white person. 

I find it amusing that in today's society we can pardon a President for doing drugs in his college days or even for having an extra marital affair just last week but someone who has worked hard to build an empire for themselves gets crucified for uttering a word (which was commonly used slang at the time) almost thirty years ago.

She supported Obama both in word and deed and money.  Big supporter.  One word from him would have ended this for her....but....silence.

Dem's are good at throwing people under the bus.  The recently retired democratic senator from West Virginia was in the KKK in the 50's.  They didn't vote him out.  Wonder why Dean, why now?

 The dumb rich mostly white folks,, who supported the current regime... will all slowly get an education of their new roles in their new america. Hope they all learn to deal with it better than paula seemed to be..  :'(
 It saddened me most to see her groveling and crying on various networks. If she'd just buck up, call em all a name and do an Alec Baldwin style attack on her tormentors, this coulda all been over in a few days ;D

It just goes to show that no matter where ya go, there ya are! She supported barry because she needed celebrity and liberal support. She had regular southern support because she could cook and had personality. She sucked up to liberals and celebrities to be famous and they are turning on her. Ya sleep with the hounds and ya gets the fleas.  :-\
 
I also was saddened to see her groveling and whining on TV. Its like dogs smelling blood they just came at her harder.
 
Go back to cooking for folks that appreciate ya hun! And tell the liberals, celebrities, and true racists to kiss off!

Maybe in a few days of rest for her brain and her eye lids she will get better. Now I have to go and pick out which of her cook books I will buy this week. ear

I've heard that. But still... sometimes racists are right (but not for being racists)

First of all you have to give a rats ass about what the blacks or the media think for them to be able harm you. Paula should learn that from this experience!
 
One of my sons a college grad is employed by a major oil company and I have given this advice to him since he started college. Don't let em know how you feel and don't tell em anything you don't want used against you later. Kinda like this:

Perhaps there will come a day when whites tire of this double standard and start pushing back. But that day is nowhere in sight right now. So unless whites are prepared to run the gauntlet, they should follow the advice of an anonymous poster on the American Renaissance website:
"When on the job, DO NOT DISCUSS RACE! In any form.  Do not comment, do not even mention it, or acknowledge it, or use any sort of race-related terminology. Just say nothing! Have no opinion!"
“Owning a handgun doesn’t make you armed any more than owning a guitar makes you a musician.”

She can start a fried chicken chain.  But what about Rick Sanchez or Pat Buchanan?  You see, it has nothing to do with racism.  Those who control the media have ties to an apartheid regime that discriminates, as do all Americans who don't condemn the regime.  So why is it racist in one instance, but not the other?  Racism is only the excuse.  It is really about any time a Gentile in the media falls out of line.  When are lemmings going to realize that? 
Study after study has shown how dangerous distracted driving is yet people continue to talk on their cell phones while driving. Driving in the U.S. requires your full attention. Many states and countries have made it illegal to use a cell phone while operating a motor vehicle and the federal government should follow their lead. Banning the use of cell phones while driving would have the added benefit of making the no-texting law enforceable.

Where I worked we had to go through culture diverity classes each year and they were taught by the most racist getto whizz bangs with perfect ebonics that could be located. It was the most miserible day out of the year when we had to attend and listen to how bad the whites were and are. If the blacks were honest they didnt like it either. One later said it embarrassed him to set through it.
To question, refute or just look at them, your job was on the line. I would call that racism but not white on black nor black on white but the runaway sick assed gov. making it up as it goes and supporting, as well ligitimizing this crap.
The whites nor the blacks could figure out what the issue was to bring something like that into a work place. The only problem we had with racism was when a black man called another black man a nigger. The offened guy ran to the office and it was comical to watch over the course of a few days what they were going to do. They did not know where to start. The whites stayed out of it, the blacks sided with the man that used the word and the offened threatened to go to DC. They finaly wrote the user up and he was fit to be tied.
A few days later he was telling me why he called him that and I got to laughing so hard I thought he was going to throw me off the building. From the first time he met me until the last time I talked to him before he died several years later, he called me saddam never used any other name just saddam. I never considered that racist.
This problem with Paula Deen I dont understand fully. Who ever she has for a PR person if she has one sure is the worst out there. Being the darling of the left has not been a blessing either, her party has closed the doors and left her out with the lions. Right now she looks like a used up old hen with a fox on her butt. Whatever she does now it will start with a (stick of butter).
