After blogging about Seth Meyer’s comments on the Asian American version of The Jersey Shore and posting it on Facebook, a friend of mine pointed me to another “slight” to Asian Americans in a skit about The Masters on Saturday Night Live. Tina Fey plays a skank providing color commentary on The Masters golf tournament and makes a comment about golf not being a “true” sport – by stating that “if Asians and Indians can compete with black people, it’s not a sport.” Another commentator immediately says, “That’s racist!”
