Want to influence a casino bid? Polish your corporate image? Not be labeled a racist?
Then you need to pay Al $harpton.
For more than a decade, corporations have shelled out thousands of dollars in donations and consulting fees to Sharpton’s National Action Network. What they get in return is the reverend’s supposed sway in the black community or, more often, his silence.
Sony Pictures co-chair Amy Pascal met with the activist preacher after leaked e-mails showed her making racially charged comments about President Obama. Pascal was under siege after a suspected North Korean cyber attack pressured the studio to cancel its release of “The Interview,” which depicts the assassination of dictator Kim Jong-un.
Pascal and her team were said to be “shaking in their boots” and “afraid of the Rev,” The Post reported.

I would have met the Rev for Pascal. It wouldn't have gone over that well for the Rev though.
ReplyDeleteNorth Korea's beautiful dictator has done a lot of horrific things to be sure, but from all evidence this is not one of his "atrocities." It was an inside job by disgruntled Sony employees - The FBI still thinks its NK who probably hired the Help. And Sanctions hurt NK how? Aren't they already about as sanctioned as you can get?

Wag the dog.
ReplyDeleteShakedown, was a book by Ken Timmerman about Jessie Jackson doing the exact same thing. A mafia tactic. White people go to jail for this kind of shit.

Exactly and infuriating.
