Colored people vs People of color? Fucking unreal...
Good Morning America co-anchor Amy Robach has apologized for saying "colored people" on Monday's broadcast of the ABC program.During a segment on diversity in Hollywood, Robach, who was substituting for Robin Roberts, noted recent criticism for casting white actors "in what one might assume should be a role reserved for colored people."
After the broadcast, Robach released a statement explaining she had meant to say "people of color."
She called the incident "a mistake" and "not at all a reflection of how I feel or speak in my everyday life."
Her use of the term sparked criticism on social media.
"Offensive," tweeted one viewer. Another said Robach "gets a pass this time" but vowed to ditch
GMA for a rival morning program if it happened again.
