"Angry that the show had not signed a Teamsters contract and that the production hired local PA’s to drive cast and crew vehicles, the dozen or so picketers from Boston’s Teamsters Local 25 kept at it for hours, raining down racist, sexist and homophobic threats and slurs as staffers came to and left the set that summer day…"
Unions are the storm troopers of liberalism.
No, keep your grubby mitts off Padma.... Although she is a huge lib.
That’s the union way. I was a steelworker (USWA) for some 12 years before I went on salary. Went to two meetings (one was a Labor Day picnic). Open communism.
racist and sexist slurs and threats are okay when leftists do it
Liberals are funny. They will claim that this is constitutionally protected speech. Whereas peaceful protesters at an abortion facility need a ‘buffer” zone and their speech isn’t protected and can be restricted.
Without threats and intimidation, unions can’t exist.

Never noticed a Help Wanted ad that specified these traits.
i like Top Chef... it is my favorite cooking competition and reality tv show... the funny thing is BRAVO TV is very, very liberal... i wonder if Andy Cohen is going to give the Teamsters his Jackal of the Day...
IIRC, Padma was married to Salman Rushdie before and during most of the fatwa he received for “The Satanic Verses”.
If she’s brave enough to face down 1 billion rabid moon-worshipping heathens, I sincerely doubt she’s the least bit worried about a few thousand of Jimmy Hoffa’s boys.

Can you imagine the reaction of a Tea Party group did the same thing?
More of the Democrats’ war on women.
non-stop, breathless TV coverage no doubt
Murder, gay bashing, extortion and bribery by Liberals and Unions are acceptable. Means to an end.
When the Left owns the microphone and accelerate stories that further their causes while spinning or outright burying those that don’t, it’s hard to imagine any true backlash not being exploited to 1,000,000x what is ignored by the Lefty Media.
I think you'd have a hard time finding many people who are NOT gay on the cooking channel.

So most male cooks are gay?
I'm gonna need a cite for that.
Stephanie March (Bobby Flay's wife) ain't been swallowing pumpkin seeds!
