Default Now American BB has race row

THE US version of Big Brother has come under fire after a contestant made anti-Semitic remarks.

Amber Siyavus Tomcavage, 27, said Jews were “selfish” and said you could spot them “by their nose”.

The outburst came on the CBS show’s live feed but has not been broadcast on the highlights programme.

We've had 2 threads about this already as well as the official thread.

Amber sucks.

Anti-Semitism is technically not racism, I hate it when people say that. Anti-Semitism is only a hatred of those who speak a Semitic language, usually Hebrew or Arabic. Thus, Amber is not a racist. I can't stand her, but CBS was out of line by not showing it. They didn't harbour racism, why should they be blamed?
