From a NY Post article which proclaimed Al Sharpton as the 'king of shakedowns'....After confronting companies with some type of 'racial' issue that Sharpton has lined his pockets through his group NAN [National Action Network] to keep his silence....
American Honda after being confronted by Sharpton....two months later began becoming big sponsors of NAN activities...Pepsi--after allegations of not enough black folks in their commercials met with Sharpton and suddenly he's given a $25,000 a year consulting job and the racial allegations disappeared...
Sharpton comment to NY Post in regard to Sony e-mails that mentioned black movies...black actors...and the cowh in unflattering e-mails...."There was never even a remote discussion about money during our meeting" But added after the meeting..."The jury is still out on Amy"...Sony CEO....
Guess by 'jury' means that the ante has to be raised by some major cash donations and/or consulting jobs for Al and his buddies.... Anyone surprised that he's under investigation for not paying income taxes on his total earnings for several years?
So in 2015 when the cowh and the ag claim that Americans are "cowards" and reluctant for an open dialogue on race relations....but has Al seated at the big table in the White House for several meetings....wonder what the price tag is on that?.....While almost everyone [not 100%] will be/or are disgusted by racism wonder how many are equally disgusted by those that use racism to extort money? If the CEO of Sony would have been anyone else in another corporation how many would have demanded an immediate firing?....But Hollywood actors defend her and accept her apology and that she's not really like what she e-mailed...there's a lot of hypocrisy going around.... If regular citizens attempted to shakedown individuals/corporations...would it be an acceptable practice or would you find your rear end in the grey bar hotel somewhere?....
