Essay 848


Legal dramas in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• In what sounds like an episode straight out of “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit,” a makeup artist fired from the TV drama is suing for sexual harassment and wrongful termination. The makeup artist charges a female production manager invited her to participate in group sex, and ultimately fired her when rebuffed. Somebody get Ice-T on the case.

• An independent investigation showed former Rep. Randy Cunningham, currently in prison, used classified bills for schemes that brought big money to himself and partners — including $2.4 million in bribes and payments for a mansion, Rolls Royce and yacht. The classified budgets, which remain private for national security reasons, are known as “black” budgets. Funny how “black” budgets don’t benefit Blacks, but manage to keep plenty of shady White folks in the black.
