NBC Cafeteria: Worst Person In The World!

Home - by Lori Ziganto - February 4, 2010 - 14:00 UTC - 66 Comments

My latest Posty at NewsReal. An Excerpt below:

NBC Cafeteria sign, in honor of Black History Month:

nbcblackhistory

Worst person/entity in the world? You decide! I won’t hold my breath for Keith Olbermann to make them so, however. Remember, racism, straight up, is totally cool as long as you are of the “correct” political stripe. Olby is just dumb enough to consider an entity a purveyor of sweet, sweet liberal policy.

All the sign needs is Bill Clinton, asking for someone to fetch him some coffee. At least the sign is light-colored and not written in “negro dialect”. Harry Reid, therefore, approves!

Another glaring example of the latent racism amongst those who claim to be embracing diversity and post-racial. I wonder if they learned that at NBC Universal’s Diversity Council?

As part of this commitment NBC Universal established the Diversity Council in 2000. Made up of leaders from across the company, the Council has made strides in increasing diversity and creating programs that encourage diverse individuals to pursue careers in media and entertainment or explore business opportunities with the company.

Hey, here’s an idea — stop splitting people up into groups! Try and think like the rest of us. We see people as, you know, people.

    Okay, so how is this different from the menu in the Denver schools for MLK day? And didn’t NBC affiliates cover that story? I know that the only way you can be a liberal is to have no memories whatsoever of past events but, seriously humans, that was only last month.

    Cakes. There is no such thing as Corned Beef in Ireland. It is Jewish. I love Pastrami on rye
    used to get is at Katz’s Deli on Houston Street.
    God how I miss the City.
    I remember my dear Mother boiling a fair size portion of pig in a large pot. The hairs would fall off the skin and float to the top. And had to be strained off. That with cabbage and spuds! What a treat. Today the Board of Health would close her down and we would probably be put in foster homes. And, of course, Mom and Dad arrested for child abuse and neglect. That was 60
    years ago. Shalom.

    What? No arugula or wagyu on the menu?

    Cakes, I have to agree with MoeTom. Corned beef was a habit Irish imigrants picked up in New York after meeting up with the other second-class citizens, the Jews. My grandmother came over to from Ireland when she was barely 20 years old. Meat was a rarity in her village, although they were sheep farmers. Meat was sold to richer folks to make money and survive paying the terrible land taxes. Pork was never on the table. They survived on late-season vegetables in the garden like potatoes, cabbage, onions, beets and the like. After Ellis Island, (which I heard was a real trip) when my grandmother finally made it to Detroit to be with her elder sister who married money, she thought she had died and gone to heaven with meat being served at practically every meal. But I do think it was the Irish who added all the veggies to the corned beef casserole we all enjoy on March 17th. That’s what makes it so good and healthy!

    @Tom and Shooters- Mancakes and I adore a proper corned beef on rye. LA had many great deli’s and but there is not a single deli here- not even in Atlanta, which has a sizable Jewish population. So, I learned to cure my own corned beef (and smoke my own pastrami) and now I make the best fresh rye bread anywhere. About every two months, I have my parents over for deli night, which includes my homemade chicken soup with matzo balls and kreplech.

    Speaking of things Jewish, Passover is coming up. Few outside the Jewish community are aware that Coca-Cola puts out a special edition of their product for Passover.
    It’s Coca-Cola made with real sugar, kosher for Passover.
    It has a different colored cap (yellow in the past) and is big here in south Florida.
    Of course, Pepsi just did the same thing, but labeled it “Throwback.” Don’t know how many Jews there are in India, but their CEO may have missed that mark, if that’s what she was aiming for.

    @Boobie- we have publix- that is NOT a deli. We also have a couple chains- Momma Golberg’s and Schlotsky’s and Jason’s Deli- all of which are simply goyishim sandwich shops. Actually, my dad ate at Mamma Goldberg’s this week and asked the owner why there was no matzo ball soup on the menu. The owner said that he couldn’t find someone that could make it, when my dad told him about me, the owner told him to have me bring him some- maybe I’ll add matzo ball maker to the long list of crap I have to do.
    The rye bread is so good, I get requests from clients/patrons for it all the time. It is fantastic, but not a money maker unless sold in large daily volume. That would require another oven, more bakery space and another employee, and in Obama’s economy, who can afford to do that?

    Actually, before the bottom fell out in ‘08, I was looking to move and expand, making it a full restaurant and bakery. I found a great location, then I lost all my savings. Then Obama came in and made it even riskier than normal. Maybe it will never happen.
