Americans think everything is racist.
What's really outrageous is that some dipshit clearly posted it on Youtube without context saying ZOMG ITS RACIALIST, because Americans are truly in tune with Australian cricket culture in regards to advertising ventures. So it's outrageous that KFC would bother even pulling the ad, since apparently Americans are going to get linked to this video in their emails with the subject line "ZOMG KFC IS RACIALIST" and then actually believe KFC
is.
Kinda like how this local news broadcast was interpreted to be racist, because Popeye's (like KFC, except not shitty) ran out of chicken and all the customers
just happened to be black. Apparently the news reporters forgot to throw in a white guy, an Asian, a Hispanic guy, and a transgender quadriplegic Jewish Canadian to balance it out:

Afterwards, the news agency apologized for it. "We didn't realize everybody was black! Do only 'people of color' like fried chicken?"
No, fuck that.
Everybody loves fried chicken, not just black people. So who fuckin' cares? I'm Asian, and I'd be pissed if Popeye's ran out of chicken when I was really craving it.
Dammit, now I really want some KFC.
