If the same comment had been made without the reference to "Jewish ladies", I think it would not have been so offensive.

"It was those two old, Jewish fat ladies," she told teammates. "Really. They were like the pinnacle of the New York jaded old bags."

You just can't talk about Feinstein and Boxer that way on camera...it will get back to them. ;)

That whole movie is funnier than hell. Not everyone is so sensitive. I am the granddaughter of a genuine wop (Grandpa was an illegal--With Out Papers). My mother occasionally answers the phone "The Kraut is speaking." When my father refers to me as "one tough broad" I get a smile a mile wide. Sticks and stones, no harm done.

I thought she said, "Jaded old JAPs," but it was hard to catch.

And this season on the show a couple times when he appears on the scene they do this "Roman emperor arriving" trumpet clarion music.

They may play Roman emperor" music but I always think 'Darth Vader'.

Jen C is uncooth, ill-mannered, unable to manage people

And those are her good qualities.

What a nasty little bitch--and what a public relations nightmare for the real estate firm!

Well, apparently they've made their own bed. I heard on TV today that the owner of the real estate company she works/worked bought a bunch of billboards hoping to use her Apprentice fame to put $$$ in his pocket.

>>People who agree to appear on “reality” shows are too stupid to be employed.

"Reality TV" is an oxnymoron.

That is the quintessential model of a broad who sleeps her way to the top.

And yes, under those circumstances, her real estate boss deserves what he gets.

She shouldn't have said "Jewish" in the tone she said it in.

OTOH, no one seemed to object that the men used their sexuality when they flirted with the Gay guys to get better ratings.

I know! And they were being really crude like asking one of them to bend over and tie his shoe in front of the gay guys.

Oh, come on! You mean you haven’t been stranded on an island recently with several gorgeous, scantily clothed women? Heck, happens to me 2-3 times a week!

I'm frankly surprised that more people haven't gotten fired after going on one of these reality shows. I'm also surprised more employers haven't told their employees No when it comes to appearing on these reality shows in the first place. After all, most of these people end up looking pretty stupid after going on reality TV.

Apprentice candidates who make big stupid mistakes on the show risk having their reputations in real life shredded to pieces. Jen made a terrible, idiotic, stupid, incomprehensible error of judgment that cost her her job. She deserved to be let go.

The question is, will possible candidates think twice about applying for the show? The group in Apprentice 1 probably came out unscathed, as none made error's like Jen's. But this group seems to have a large share of educated idiots who may be fired not only by The Donald but by their bosses back home. I wonder whether the editing of the show is to blame.

What did she say?

I don't watch those kinds of shows.
