#1 I would make some remark about the the oh so PC media being accused of actions that are not Uberliberal, but that of course would be linked to the phrase "the pot calling the kettle black" and of course, that would be so very biggoted too...... < ? >
#2. Quotas, quotas, quotas
#3. "I don't do phones" I love it. When I was at network, whenever there were huge stories breaking, suits from all over the building, some of them $350,000 sales VPs, would come down to help with phones, xeroxing, even running out for coffee and Danish.
#4. Friends at CBS say it was very simple. She was an unqualified and lazy Affirmative Action hire and promotion. Others double checked her work because they had to. ... and CBS will pay off because they are cowards.

PS, one of the best in the business.
Maybe it's because all the talented, competent, responsible african americans are all conservatives.
Figures.
Many have learned how to play this game.
...perhaps was he doing 'a heck of a job'?
She can always get on the next "Apprentice".
Hey Schieffer. Call me. Oh I don't like CBS and you leftists in general, but hey, for 185,000 dollars, I'll answer the phone!
I once worked for a company where the President would answer the phones for the receptionist when she went to lunch! What's the woman's problemo? ..........
Poor baby.
I like the phones bit. I once worked for a guy whose startup company eventually sold for several hundred million dollars.
He personally asked two questions of every job applicant at every level: if you take the last cup of coffee, will you make more; and if you see a piece of paper on the floor, will you pick it up?
There were no job descriptions at any level.
Looks like ineptness really sucks but accountability rules!
Guess what lady. AfricanAmericans are not the only ones who have no inoput into CBS. White manhattan liberal dem's are the only ones.
Sometimes I think the Big Media is trying to "buy off" the minorities by becoming shills for their Point of View in exchange for silence on things closer to home. Kind of like the way Clinton got a Rape and Abuse License from NOW in exchange for certain "PC" positions.
Yeah? Well, there is not one single conservative or Republican holding a rank above producer on any of CBS' eight separate broadcasts as well. Where's your outrage, lady?
I have a word for her.
Courage.
noting that "not one of CBS News' eight broadcasts is in any way directed, influenced, or shaped by an African American or any minority holding a senior position on that broadcast.
Until I searched for the meaning of her condition, Cervical Ridiculitis, I thought it meant she had some kind of ridiculous sex disorder.
"not one of CBS News' eight broadcasts is in any way directed, influenced, or shaped by an African American or any minority holding a senior position on that broadcast."
and this is the only reason CBS should put a minority in power, just because there isn't any now... can you say, "gimme gimme gimme, I need" ? or entitlement?
If I were making 185K for doing a pie job, I sure as hell wouldn't rock the boat.
Her claim sounds ridiculous, but I'm assuming she meant cervical radiculitis. I don't see how just 'stress' could have brought this condition on. Cervical radiculitis is inflammation of the root of a spinal nerve. This condition is the result of direct pressure from a disc or inflammation around the nerve. Maybe it was just bad posture at her computer?
LMAO!!! This one had my jaw dropping until I got to "Cervical Ridiculitis" near the end. Truly excellent satire.
The problem is, it is excellent satire because it is rooted in truth. Many large companies are reluctant to hire blacks because of the risk of hiring someone like the woman depicted in this story.
