Paula Deen made her Today Show appearance this morning and had an emotional talk with Matt Lauer about racial slurs she made that have subsequently gotten her fired from Food Network and cost her her deal with Smithfield Foods. Deen said many "hurtful lies" have been said about her to Lauer before she launched into a speech defending her non-racist views on the world.
