  • we have more important stuff going on then dumb fucking BARBIE DOLLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • There's no winning. Charge more for black dolls and they'll cry that the company is trying to price black kids out of dolls, charge less for them and they'll cry that the company thinks blacks have less value. No matter what you do you're only doing it because you're a racist.

    If "black leaders" didn't make such a great living crying racism there would be very little of it.

  • the guy in this video is so rude, i don't care about the dolls at all ..... but he has no proof to back up the things he is saying . how do you know that white kids never buy black dolls,idiot. and he is a class A jackass for saying that the turkish doll would have a mustache!

  • im a guy so i dont care

  • im a guy so i don't care

  • Lmao I just bought a Barbie for my half Guatemalan and Black niece. I'm white and I was SOOO confused. which color does she want!!!

  • @hblakely992 lol I chose middle color.

  • WTF! All dollz are the same just like people! I love white dolls and black dolls! Theyre both the same!

    I am Black

  • When I was little I wanted a barbie doll pilot for my toy plane and my mom got me the black barbie doll. I didn't even notice nor did I care that the pilot was black, I just wanted a doll to go with the plane. And I'm white btw.

  • Turkish barbie might have a mustache, LMAO!

  • @HerkullisetPorot that is not funny at all!.. thats rude

  • Its fucking cheaper because black bitches dont shut the fuck up. The black barbie would drive you fucking nuts.

  • @icanadian18 just shut up....please

  • i h8 racist ppl they r little sick weirdos!!!

  • deeper than the actual barbie doll price..."THEY COULDNT SELL THE BLACK DOLLS" EXACTLY...this speak volumes about even the color caste system in the black community. I hate the assholish laughter he lets out over the issue...

  • @poisenwell ok?...that's awesome?

  • @poisenwell yea fuckin why not?

  • @poisenwell shut the fuck up you stupid cunt get the fuck over yourself.it's like saying it is racist to sell red m&m's for less than blue m&m's

  • @JakeFoxRyan yea im just saying that your not my fucking slave

  • @poisenwell ...shut the fuck up

  • @poisenwell

    u mad bro ?

  • @poisenwell

    it's spelled you're

    idiot . . .

  • @poisenwell

    its not my fault you make no sense

    moron . . .

  • @poisenwell

    i dont know what the fuck you're talking about you dumbass

  • @poisenwell

    why do i have anything to do with you ? ummm i dont . . .

    make my own dolls ? why would i do that

  • @poisenwell

    umm what the fuck are you talking about, your sentence makes no sense

    why of god ? wtf are talking about ?

    moron

  • @poisenwell

    why would they say something about the rawanda genocide, i mean im sure they know about it, but that happened more than a decade ago & they only talk about current events, or politcal things, & actually i bet they have probably brought it up, you cant just go to a random video & say 'they say nothing about rawanda" well of course not the news story is about why ppl are mad at these prices, moron

  • I don't get the controversy. Do they think that it's because black people are poorer or something?

  • it's just supply and demand. the population disparity determines the prices. How many white families vs black families are there in this country? It's not hard....

  • its all about the blue barbie.

    its half doll, half avatar!

    2 for the price of one bitches

  • I dont even think black people care about this..

  • That's just dumb. That pink colored rubber and plastic is more expensive than that brown colored rubber and plastic. Extraterrestrials would take a 1 second survey of the human race and just wipe us the fuck out.

  • @PeacePlease05 no way, you know most black girls? Damn...you know LaCresha Williams?

  • WTF. YALL AINT KNOW ONE FUCK SO JUST STFU AREADY.

  • well i'm a guy so my thing is with action figures.

    regardless of skin color, if the figure looks cool,

    i'll buy it. but if he's boring and generic, then forget it.

  • well if its a sale its cause black dolls weren't selling. I was a shoprite clerk once and someone didn't understand why one flavor of gum was on sale and another wasn't. I explained maybe that one wasn't selling at that price. That's the reason any product is on sale. No one is like oh it's selling out at a normal price I guess I'll lower it. If the regular price were lower I can understand but not a sale price.

  • If my daughter asks me for a barbie doll gonna I'm buy her a telecaster.

  • @Maxpound my dad did that to me! XD

  • Who's seen lucky louie? They talk about this in the first episode

  • Wal Mart did this on purpose to stir controversy. The one radio host suggested that white parents buy their daughters black Barbie dolls. I say we do the right thing, and take this one step further. Let the city council, state legislature, or whatever authority available make it MANDATORY that white parents buy their daughters black Barbies.

  • lol louisiana

  • i used to buy the cheap black barbies when i was a kid there heads always fell off so i gave up buying them it made me sad mattel should make better black ones now that was the late 90s/early 00s

  • Its cheaper so more Black people can afford them. DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • man, the white man wont even give the black doll a breakT_T

  • I got other things to focus on then why one piece of plastic is more expensive than another.

  • This should happen to remind everybody that a black person will never measure up to their white counterparts. Justice at its best.

  • @pfull28 it's supply and demand most people in the United States are white soo most white barbies will be sold, more money they will cost. What are you even talking about.

  • @summerchick621 He's referring to a Daniel Tosh comedy bit. But I agree with you 100%. The two barbies cost the the same to produce but the black ones get less revenue.

  • Let me tell you something about black people.You are as much as responsible for racism as white people because you divide yourself from the rest as much as some white people do.This is foreign issue to me because i live in eastern Europe and we never had slaves here but what i see is the racism will never go away if you don't stop to separate from the rest.Just look at Europe at the moment racism is not even an issue it has dissapeared.Everyone should look themself before pointing others.

  • Do y'all think black ppl care if the black barbie is cheaper than the white barbie. HELL NO because they go buy one for every little girl in they family even baby mama daughters too.

  • Fucked up

  • Whoa whoa whoa! its in LOUISIANNA! ITS LIKE 80% BLACK...But whatever TBH girls these days dont play with no barbies anymore!

  • hahaha the title made me laugh!

  • Oh, I thought this was racist against White people, because the have to pay more.

  • They did this one time at our Wal-Mart where the black light up Santas where cheaper then the white light up Santas, and no one got mad.

  • Make the black barbies into slaves.

  • Kid wants dolls that they can relate to, a majority of kids are white, this isn't fucking racism

  • not racism, just supply and demand!

  • boring commentator!

  • Just like in real life

  • Yup, Black Barbies are cheaper than White Barbies, and the Turkish Barbies can't even be "given" away lmao. You call this news??? You should seriously consider renaming your youtube ID from TheYoungTurks to TheYoungMorons....

  • @Love0dyssey SLOW YOUR ROLL LOVEODYSYSSEY. You an all those other "struggling" Americans who think you are saving a buck are only digging a deeper hole for yourselves. While good old Sam Walton and his mega billionaires ship your jobs overseas so that cheap goods can be bought by you, you and every other Walmart shopper further screw things up. If this is how you deconstruct this messed up economy and redistribute wealth, you are going about the wrong way!

  • the black dolls are half-price? could be worse. they could be 3/5.

    and with that, imma get the hell outta here.

  • @BalzacCinema 1/2 is worse than 3/5

  • TYT - The track record that Walmart has anyway, and in relation to the article you did concerning female staff discrimination would further address this factor.

  • we devalue ourselves because if we didnt we would buy the black dolls.

  • I like to decapitate Barbies. And my Asian Barbie is a self hater, she only assesorizes with white Kens and well, there are no non white Kens.

  • go fuck ur self ok its a damn problem

  • what this means is that the individual worth of a black human being is less than their white counterparts. that should be fairly obvious. that is one super obvious point. the other ridiculously obvious point is that whites being that they are worth more as human beings than blacks, should apologize and feel bad about being worth more than blacks. this was an easy call. next!

  • @RealityVersusEgo Do you really think stores would loose money just to be racist? Dolls go on sale when they do not sell well, the dolls do not sell well. Now it might be interesting to know why the dolls did not not sell, however I do not think the store down priced the black dolls just to make some sort of point.

  • she needs a can of black spray paint and spray herself she is a joke

  • Blacks have gone crazy with this racism BS! Every thing is racism to them now. LOL IT funny as hell!

  • @jackfire55 Im black and i agree tbh. i have friends that assume any unfairness is racism. I think the problem is that black parents dont buy their kids many dolls, although maybe more marketing would help. Ahh well! Back to life..

  • @crazybanditt Well its nice to see not all blacks are part of that cult of victimization. And just find it so funny blacks are always talking about how racist whites are and how they are keeping blacks down. Yet if u look around the world. Mostly the only places that blacks make it a head in life is where they are ruled by the racist white man. I will send u vids on the matter

  • the thing is the black little girls usually buy white dolls just bcuz of the society they grew up in dictates it. they grow believing the whiter an straighter the hair is. the more fun you will have. they dont want to pick a fro on a doll

  • YYYAAYY! For me! I'm a latino guy! I got a chance with Ana! LOL

  • @harj2009 really

  • I am white and my favorite Barbie was a Dee Dee from Barbie and the Rockstars or whatever it was called, and that doll is black. I had black dolls, white dolls, Asian dolls and considering I have always been a fan of fantasy and science fiction I had a few rather oddly colored ones as well.

  • @Venefica82 whats your point?

  • @RealityVersusEgo My point is that the reporters say that usually children will want dolls with the same skin color as their own, white kids wanting white dolls, black kids wanting black dolls and so on. I only commented that this is not always the case. Often children will want dolls of different color than themselves.

  • @Venefica82 so you thought unless you said you are white and you bought black dolls people would think white girls only bought white dolls and never bought any other dolls. that that was always the case? but you are saying that that isnt always the case? WOW so good of you to clear that up for us capt obvious! in case anybody has missed her post this girl is white and she had a black doll when she was a girl! that means that white girls do not ALWAYS just want white dolls. LOL you r dumb

  • @RealityVersusEgo I feel sorry for you, it must be hard to not have another life than to try to pick a fight with random strangers on the internet and being an ass. I commented the video, if you feel my comment was unnecessary why do you waste time commenting back to me? You are truly a sad individual.

  • Wow! Scrolling through the comments made me realize black people arent the only ignorant ones white people are too! Im black and im offended everytime somebody says black somebody always bring up rap or our grammar! STFU!

  • so this particular store is in a predominantly white area.

    Fuck.

  • What the bloke said.

    A smart American? Madness!

  • When I was younger there were only white barbies there were no latino,indian,turkish,none of that only white barbies and I was stuck buying white barbies.It wasn't that I wanted to buy white barbies I would take brown barbies over white barbies anyday I want a barbie that looks something like me & I'm neither white or black.

  • wait a minute here people wait a minute!!! how about the asian barbies?? uh!

  • if the black barbies were more expensive...they would say it's racist too. black people have no understanding of supply and demand. All the prices in stores and supermarkets are set by a computer keeping track of inventory at what was scanned through the register.

  • Supply and demand is racist.

  • why don't you guys ask black men why they prefer white women over their own race? ... just open up your eyes and take a look around at whats going on, they only made the black ones in the first place to shut people like you up so you wouldn't be screaming racism at every turn... screaming racism is just a cop out anymore, nobody listens because nobody cares!

  • @n64roo stop stereotyping, am a black man, I sure as hell don't prefer white women over my own race, if i was going to date outside my race it would be Latinas.

  • @richradtylr4 I can tell from your grammar that you're black...

  • @richradtylr4 you sureeee do, that's why all your music videos show all hot latin women and black women who are 6.788756785985% black

  • @bench261 What do you mean my music videos? Who told you i was a rap artist or in the music industry? and those rappers who put women in their music videos and cars and stuff are commercialized rappers, they are own by major record labels that are using sex to sell to the misguided youth. mainstream/commercialized rap is not real hip-hop. sorry for going a little of subject, but as for as the hot non- white women in the music videos, have you notice they have ass? In which white girls lack.

  • You people will use any excuse to make a stink over nothing, won't you.

    Black Barbies are less expensive than white Barbies because the people who buy black Barbies have less money than the people who buy the white Barbies. If you want to be mad about something, be mad about the fact WalMart is making marketing decisions as if endemic poverty in the minority community is normal.

    And I had just as many black Barbies as white Barbies, but then again, I was raised by normal people.

  • Fox j e w s is grabage

  • TheYoungFags OLOLOLOLOL!

  • @CKThriller8

    Not in the Middle-class.

    I grew up with several Black kids in my neighborhood.

    And all of them would have been severly punished by their parents if they were caught using such filthy language.

    It's somthing that people of low-breeding do.

  • wat about dolls of another race. There aren't any.

  • @iaow2 What? You haven't seen the new Serbia-Croatian barbie...or Goth barbie even? Seriously, you must check your toy store shelves. They are there.

    :-) lol

  • What a surprise! Another case of people pulling the race card on something RETARDED! Its called supply and demand. I can pretty much guarantee you that if it was a Barbie of ANY other color, people wouldnt be pissed about it. Whys that? Because the rest of us dont look for excuses to be pissed about "racism".

    Suck it the fuck up and move on.

  • @cipher619

    There is a lot of racism in this world, but focusing on a popculture plastic thing is crazy. By the way, WHY are people shopping at wal-mart????

    Folks wake up. If you want an asian barbie or african barbie or german barbie...go get some markers, a cheap barbie version at the dollar store, color it up or do whatever, wrap it and give it to your kid. She'll never know the difference and you can pocket that extra 15.00 bucks! End of story.

  • @CKThriller8

    So if a white, asian or mexican person uses it as a friendly greeting black people shouldn't get mad?

  • You two are a pair of hemoroids no one should have to bare. Get a new career, get off the Internet.

  • oh and by the way....trailer park barbie comes with a fancy new realistic meth lab kit! Just in time for the holidays!!!!

    (void where prohibited)

  • ummm why are people still buying those sick pieces of plastic made in china anyway? These doll things give girls a false sense of self and low self esteem. You should see trailerpark barbie...she's only 95 cents. (single wide malibu trailer, beer guzzling, bubba doll and 8 babies sold separately).

    P.S. anyone who shops at wal-mart is DEVALUED!

  • @highhighsky1

    Well, when I was a little girl, I liked barbie dolls, because they looked so cool after I'd tie them to a firecracker and blow them up.

    :)

  • @SinnFein4ever

    You are a rarity ...most little girls get caught up in the brainwashing.

    Ask yourself...DO YOU REALLY want a guy like "ken"... No offense but KEN is gay

  • @highhighsky1

    I played with Ken somtimes too.

    I used to have Barbie kill Ken, and drive off with his car.

    :)

  • @highhighsky1 smart ass

  • this is so stupid. THEY ARE JUST DOLLS! stupid people that dont think before they complain. they are dolls not humans

  • ahahahahahahaha lol... sight~~~~ this never gets old..

    but ya this is mess up

  • EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL DOLLS!

  • 2 liberal internet ass clowns

  • Rasko67, shut up and stop posting for the rest of your life. You are worse than juvenile.

    ..

    Some people just don't have what it takes to be part of polite, adult society.

  • how do you have an attraction to Hispanics? its not a race... but she's retard... maybe little darker europeans? or Mestizo?

  • They're all sexist, lol!

  • @MDDaviddelgado Then people are racist, not the store!

    Still has something to do with racism!

  • @LiBlub1 this is not racist because they are just dolls. its just like this black dog that i got that i named nigger and its not racist because its a dog not a human and i dont even really know what the word means, i just know its somehow offensive to black people

  • Americans are retarded they see racism in everything even on artifacts, black dolls vs white dolls, white cats vs black cast, black cars vs white cars. On pianos the black notes are upper and the white notes are lower is that racism too.

  • u r one hell of a woman !!

    consider me as your number one fan !!!

  • reflects street prices between black and white hoes also. i guess johns are racist.

  • Who's the nitpickety cry baby fuck who actually noticed this about stupid Barbie dolls? Of course Walmart put them on clearance, No one was buying the damn things, and they wanted to clear shelf space for a product that actually sold well.

  • the black dolls dont sell because the money is going on crack instead

  • @verynice420 u racist white fuck. go suck your momma's dick that damn dick sucking shemale whore. no wonder ur so adopted

  • I'll go buy my daughter a black doll right now. She would play with it just the same. ;)

  • I fail to see how this is even an issue. If they want to put black dolls on clearance then they can do it. People read too much into things sometimes.

  • blach dolls are ugly

  • no one likes the black dolls

  • You are the worst! Nyah nyah nyah.

    One of these days Alice... Boom! POW! Straight to the moon!

  • @Armandmtl Thats ace yo

  • im 21 and white and my first barbie was a black ballet dancer and i still have it

  • u racist sunna biches.lol

  • here in austria, white bread is more expensive than dark bread...wait until TYT find out!

  • Even in Louisiana, the Caucasian population trumps the African American population, and people will usually buy the most familiar looking dolls for their children. It's no surprise that black dolls sell less. Meanwhile, I work at a predominantly Haitian preschool, and the majority of the dolls at that preschool are dark-skinned. As for the sale... definitely tasteless, but not racist. It's more the juxtaposition of the dolls that has people upset.

  • I want to see Anna in HD. I need to get a subscription to Netflix to help the cause!

  • White meat cost more than dark meat at KFC!

  • die

  • why arent the black people crying over the fact that black hookers are cheaper then white hookers?! becuz you get wut u pay for... hahahahahahahahaha, im just kidding. big woop its a fuckin doll not some plot to destroy the spooks. relax negros, save a buck and smile... :D

  • @MisterNiceGuy001: Wow. What's wrong with you? Did you bump your head?

  • @ varishnakov. that's racist ! "BLACK barbies are GROSS." they may not be as pretty as the White barbies but they are NOT gross! :-(

  • @ varishnakov that's racist! "BLACK barbies are GROSS" how can u say that? They might not be as pretty as the white barbies but they are NOT gross. :-(

  • I once had a ginger GI Joe.....I never played with it.

  • Black barbies are gross.

  • @varishnakov black barbie looks jus like "white barbie" she jus has brown skin.....so wtf r u talking about do your research idiot.......Play in TRAFFIC. (DEAD)!!!!!!

  • I love the US for bringing me new LOLWUT-WTF-ROFLMAO-Moments like this every day

  • And this is how BLACK people are racist.

  • The only part I find controversial is that they're telling people to buy ANY product from Wal-Mart. It's the most unethical corporation ever.

  • If the white barbie dols would be cheaper - nobody would say anything.

  • @Vojak3 ya they would... they want to discourage blacks from buying black dolls and guaging the ones that do... you cant win man

  • @Vojak3 yah thats actually soo true

    im not being racist but sometimes black people take it wayyy to seriously...well only some black ppl take it wayy to seriously

  • @heely8: That is easy to say when you've probably never been discriminated against. Try having the shoe on the other foot and see if you make the same claim.

  • @shawnsbigtube hey jizz ball, i have been discriminated against cuz no lie i do look like a cholo (i dont dress like on but im 6'3 mexican and have facial hair) but people say i talk white. and im like oh so articulate is white and stupid retarted slang is mexican? anyways, i have been descriminated against, it sucks but im not gona start a fucking riot with my tears. everyone just needs to relax already. get the stick outta ur asses...

  • @shawnsbigtube yah i actually have...being an asian doesent make it easier asshole.

    i get discriminated against and ppl dont give a shit...on the other hand u can make a black joke and get fuking shot....so yah i have had the shoe on my foot and i still make the claim.

  • Yes JR.

    Because Barbie white needs a maid. :D jk

  • Really? This is a newsworthy story? Anyone concerned about this needs to go fuck themselves and die in a car wreck....

  • It is my eperience in real life that black girls are in fact cheaper than white girls. I mean that as a compliment . If your white black girls are easy to please and don't usually demand to much. So at the end of the day you spend less.

  • Im white and my sister and I had black barbies as a kid.... my favourite was actually my Scary Spice barbie doll!

  • The black dolls were probably on sale to help them sell, because they weren't moving. It's nothing against black people, but when you have a product that people don't want to buy, you need to do little things to help the demand for that product.

  • "Uh, we're in a recession"

    "Would it have a mustache?"

    Love this show.

  • @DetroitGOP They're self hating because white people have made them feel ugly, they've been doing it for hundreds of years and are still doing it today.

    But before you talk about self hating let's not forget white women who:

    1) Have braids

    2) Get breast implants

    3) Ass implants

    4) Lip implants

    5) Fake tans to get darker

    6) Worship Black men

  • "Would a Turkish doll have a moustache" Lmfaooo -dies-

  • Yeah, most black barbies don't sell.

    If it was the collectable's, then it would be a lot.

  • True

  • Hey that cooment you made about Irish being called Nigger first,well it's amazing to see them not going the shit that we went through.Irish people are white just like the ones who enslaves our asses for 400 years so don't bring that bull shit to me because it won't fly here.

  • i find it funny that its the CONSUMERS that arent buying the black dolls in the first place..

    so wal mart decides to lower the price so that maybe they WILL actually sell. and nooow the CONSUMERS are bitching and crying racist?

    seriously....

    if anyone is racist.. it would be the people not buying the black dolls in the first place. not wal mart for only trying to sell something no one seems to want.

    supply and demand.. understand THAT before bitching about how racist wal mart appearently is.

  • i find it funny that its the CONSUMERS that are not buying the black dolls...

    soo wal mart, instead of wasting space and money, decides to lower the price so maybe the dolls WILL sell. and nooow the CONSUMERS are just bitching and crying racist?..

    if anyone is racist it would be the people not buying the black dolls in the first place. cause its definitely not wal mart for only trying to sell something no one seems to want..

    seriously...

  • shows that slavery is still uppermost in white peoples minds. i bet all the kkk enthusiasts go out there and buy themselves a black barbie so they can have black slaves again. ok thats sick, but so is putting black barbie dolls on sale while white barbies are full price. as a mother i would be highly offended using race in the store. its essentially saying the worth of a black person is not worth the price of a white person. Barbie made black barbie to show equity. Including WORTH.

  • im mad they dont sell transvestite barbies, people should start complaining.

  • have we nothing better to dowith our time people realy

  • some people just have way too much time on their hands.

  • smh...never going to happen...lol

  • I remember going to Toy R Us when I was like 5 or 6 & they didn't have any black dolls. I told my mom I wanted the white doll. She looked at me with the most disgusted look. I didn't understand it then but after watchin clips from the '90s. & I wasnt the only black girl wanting a white doll. It wasn't that I though the white doll was pretty, I just didn't see color & just wanted to play. Adults need to let kids be kids & stop worrying about POINTLESS things. This takes the innocence of a child.

  • a moustache!
