Personally, I was not offended by it because it was such a pathetic attempt to be funny, and a miserable and lowly attempt to mimic us. Like another poster mentioned, she is just a fat turd whose jokes are the quality of a 5-year old and a dog. In my opinion, I don't think we need to deem her as unforgivable or what not, and just let her be; let her continue making shit quality comedy and let her continue believing she is an A-class comedian. I mean, seriously Rosie, are you in grade school? This ching-chong thing not only made herself look idiotic, but is continued proof that many Americans, including so-called celebrities, are still pretty narrow-minded. Well, hopefully the time comes when China kicks your ass USA, and then you lazy Americans will realize what a true Chinese is; that we are more than just ching-chong, and that our culture, heritage, and traditions have survived thousands of years and will continue to thrive in the thousands of years to come. Yes, when I saw Russell Peters clip, now that was funny. He actually sounded like he was speaking Cantonese, and could have probably fooled beginner Cantonese speakers! There's a difference when one makes proper and realistic observances about cultures (Russell Peters) and when one who has no intelligence at all, insults a culture (Rosie). Come on, we're Chinese! This should be the least of things to worry about or sign petitions about. Just let her be, and sooner or later, time will carry her out of show business.
I hate her. If it was a joke, then it was in poor taste. but she definitely can't take what she puts out, so she definitely shouldn't try to dish it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qINiw6ub5U
Seriously I hate it when people do that in front of my face or if they just do it. It's offensive to people. Geez if she doesn't have anything better to do then read a book on respect!
I can understand that she's an idiot. But to be allowed to broadcast her racist ignorance on a national network is quite another thing. Her network should be make to suffer. Say how about the PRC ban all ABC employees from China for five years? That would certainly get their attention. Imagine if the ABC network can't broadcast anything from the olympics because of this? Ha... She would be so gone if the Chinese gov weighted in on this. And she uses Japanese Haiku to apologize to Chinese that she's insulted? Please. That's just another example of what an ignorant idiot she is, or... that she purposely understood the difference but used it anyway to give her detractors a subtle dig. Ralph
How stupid is she... "To say ching chong to someone is very offensive, and some Asian people have told me it's as bad as the n-word. Which I was like, `Really? I didn't know that.'" Some peoples ignorance is beyond my belief
Jin made a song about this and was cussing her -lol I just hate people who say ching chong... eh it's not even funny and it's lame. I just ignore people who say that but if they do say it alot then i diss them back... I think Rosie O'Donnell is a shit comedian...she can go back and eat burgers.
She said that she was doing her best impression! iF SHE DOESN'T KNOW CHINESE SHE SHOULDN'T IMITATE IT!
-lol I hate her even more cuz I've actually had someone say that to me when I was lil... Hate taht Bitch!! that was a distasteful impression..
