A news anchor in Missouri was deeply hurt when a viewer criticized her for being "very Asian" but within hours, Asian Americans across the country stood up for her.
Last week, an unidentified woman called CNN affiliate KSDK in St. Louis, Missouri to complain that Michelle Li, an anchor and reporter at the station, mentioned her choice of New Year's meal during a segment on food traditions for the holiday.
The 42-year-old anchor had said at the end of the segment that she ate dumpling soup and explained it is "what a lot of Korean people do."
