Excellent point. I took another look at the article. They mention film crews.
The whole thing is ridiculous. Don’t hire based on experience and skill. Hire so as many boxes as possible get checked off. Might as well add a Jewish box, especially given the current environment.
I am certainly in favor of them adding a "Jewish" box - as long as they also include a "Belgian" box, a "Norwegian" box, a "Finnish" box...
Or, alternatively, they could simply include an additional category: Besides "in front of the camera," "film crew," "advertising and promotion," they should also have "money."
The overwhelming Jewish representation in that category would guarantee a sure win, every time!
