AMC's 'Talking Dead' Draws Fire With Social Media Posts Some Called Insensitive Following San Bernardino Massacre

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — A post on the official account of the after-show for the drama series "The Walking Dead" has drawn some criticism on social media.

The post on the Facebook and Twitter accounts of AMC's "Talking Dead" included a bloodied sheet with the caption: "Office holiday party look, anyone?"

On Twitter, another photo was captioned, "We're definitely wearing this to the office holiday party. #TalkingDead #TWD

"The Walking Dead" is based on the time following a zombie apocalypse.

But some say the post appears to be a very bloody image at an office holiday party and have found it offensive in the wake of the San Bernardino mass shooting.

"Stupid [expletive] post considering what happened in San Bernardino," wrote one user via Facebook.

Another said: "Not a great caption after the events in California" while a third wrote: "Fairly certain the San Bernardino shooting was a Christmas office party."

Yet, others didn't think the post referenced San Bernardino at all, nor found it offensive.

One user said via Facebook: "Calm down people, stop overreacting" while another said: "You can't post anything without offending someone."

The mass shooting in San Bernardino on Dec. 2 claimed 14 lives and wounded 21 others.
