From the Toronto Star:
It’s not often that a packing label prompts an international embarrassment, but there was Toronto, on CNN’s Lou Dobbs Tonight, a city where, viewers were told, a dark brown leather couch was being marketed as “nigger-brown.”
“You’ve got to be kidding,” said Dobbs, shaking his head at the shame of it. The guest held up the Toronto Star story about a black woman in Brampton whose new couch arrived in her home bearing a packing label describing the colour as “nigger-brown.”
