TV producer accused of racism, sexism
Yahoo! News: "The Intl. Assn. of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) said it has complained to the show's producer, NBC Universal Television, in three instances involving allegations against executive producer Ted Kotcheff over the past three years."
Sometimes you forget that there are people out there who are like this. I mean, in the entertainment industry, there is certainly a lot of sexism in certain departments that are traditionally male dominated. That there is someone who is that overtly racist, sexist, and an all-around bigot who has advanced to such a position of power is a major flaw in the karma system.
