Food Network dumps Paula Deen after she admitted to using racial slurs , She begs for forgiveness

The same day the celebrity chef apologized for using the N-word and other admitted racial insensitivities in her past — the cable network announced it was kicking her out of the kitchen.

"Food Network will not renew Paula Deen's contract when it expires at the end of this month," the network wrote in a brief statement.

The network said in a news release Friday afternoon that it would not renew Deen’s contract when it expires at the end of the month.

Deen has built an empire from her television shows, cookbooks and product endorsements. The Food Network began airing Paula’s Home Cooking in 2002 and added Paula’s Best Dishes in 2008.

"The new future has really begun," Hancock said in a recent phone interview with The Vancouver Sun. "It's a future that's more about global collaboration. I think we're going to see more of that happening in music and other pursuits like science. It's already happening on the Internet. The Internet opens up a whole new range of possibilities in a wide range of areas."
