Racist Font Used in Attack Ad Against Korean American Candidate, Democrats Say

{snip}

State Democrats are accusing their Republican counterparts of distributing a “racist” ad targeting Democratic challenger Andy Kim, a Korean American. Kim is running against two-term Republican incumbent Tom MacArthur.

The ad features a photo of several whole fish on ice with the caption “There’s something Real Fishy about Andy Kim.”

“Real Fishy” and “Andy Kim” are spelled out in a type font a Democratic spokeswoman said is called “Chop Suey,” and is often associated with Chinese food stores or Asian films.
