Paula Deen Has Her PR Team To Thank For Food Network Chopping?!

There IS such a thing as bad PR!
And Paula Deen definitely had some bad PR this week as it came out that she used the N word in the past, which snowballed into well, one helluva spicy meatball!
It seems Paula actually has her PR team to thank for getting the boot from the Food Network because it was apparently everything after the N word usage that led to her dismissal.
The Food Network reportedly felt like her attempt at apologizing and skipping out on the Today show warranted them pulling the plug on the queen of butter.
Now that is one sticky sitch!
We can only wonder if her PR team will be getting fried fired next!
