Much like when it
started running Savage Love,
Eugene Weekly's decision to run Gustavo Arellano's syndicated column has been greeted with some opposition:
letters to the editor have called the
OC Weekly staffer "racist," while leaders of the local Latino community have pressed the paper to drop the column. KEZI-TV hits the streets, finds folks "outraged" over ¡Ask a Mexican! and wonders "What's next: 'Ask an Asian'"? "It's even better than that," Arellano
writes on the OC Weekly blog, "it's '
Ask a Korean!', and it's pinche brilliant."
