Former American Idol Contestants File Multi-Million-Dollar Lawsuit Against The Show Citing Racial Discrimination
Occams razor suggests that a lack of talent may be a better explaination.
### letter submitted in January by New York City lawyer James H. Freeman on behalf the 10 contestants to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.###
Contestants are employees?
It’s been the same, old refrain for fifty years now: “It’s not because I’m stupid, uneducated, untalented, a chronic pain in the neck with an attitude, or even a criminal - it’s because my skin is bla-ack!”
I can see their point. Really... if their ancestors had never come to America, they could really be raking it in now. Those “African Idol” contests sure do rock! It’s a cryin’ shame they have to suffer living in America when it would be so much better for them somewhere else. Sheesh!
Blah, blah, blah
Didn’t a black woman win last year’s American Idol?
Learning to be future al sharptons and jessee jacksons.
Misnomer...EEOC really stands for Eventual Elimination Of Caucasians.
Am I getting this correctly?
The arrest records of the contestants are real, showing them to be, “violent criminals, liars and sexual deviants,” it is that the show illegally dredged these records up?
If the producers think they suffered a ratings plunge last year, wait ‘till this nonsense takes hold!
“...the show illegally dredged up arrest records...”
Were there factual arrest records for the contestants?
Did the contestants sign a statement that they had no felony arrests?
If so, it appears that the contestants were trying to defraud the show? (if that’s the correct legal term?)
If all 10 were disqualified for criminal Background, arrest records, or whatever, that can be easily proven or disproven.
If That’s the case, and all 10 were black, what does that say about the black community?
Or they thought they’d lose ratings if the show featured wall-to-wall incoherent screaming and nasty rappers.
Waaaah, waaaah, waaah, racists cry racism everywhere they go, waaaah, waaaah, waaaah.
They are Trayvon - just because it was discovered that they are seedy low-lifers is no reason to act differently towards them...It is their “right” to reap the benefits of an entity that they cheapen by being associated with it.
Reminds one of a Mad TV skit in which the guy complained to his date about racism. Paraphrasing: “I’m an octaroon; that’s one eighth black!” “Applied for a job the other day as a research microbiologist. They said I didn’t have an advanced degree. We all know that’s codeword for octaroon!”
Is it ever going to end? Every failure that black people experience is the result of racism. Reminds me of the time I was waiting on line at a bagel shop and this black guy in front of me ordered a bagel and coffee with sugar, and when he got the coffee he tasted it and realized it had no sugar. So what did he say? “Yo, you put no sugar in that, prolly on purpose cause you a racist mofo”.. Yes, racism racism racism! It’s everywhere!
