WHAT YOU SAY

Newsreader:

I'll bet you 50 bucks the Asian Male reporter who went unnamed was CBS investigative reporter Ken Kashiwahara, a 30 year veteran who has more than paid his dues but has NEVER been given an ON CAMERA ANCHOR MAN JOB!!!

What's even stupider is that every AM I know in Corporate America busts his ass to climb the coporate ladder just like any other guy who has ambition. Friedman's logic is a JOKE!!!

Right now, the main Anchor or Anchor Type Asian guys we see are Bob Stokes (a very Asian looking Hapa on the Weather Channel, Steve Kim on ESPN News, and John Kim, a panelist on Wall Street Week.) I wonder why THEY weren't referenced or interviewed in the article? Kinda makes you go "Hmmm...?"

Steve Friedman, a senior executive producer at CBS News in New York, conceded that there was a glass ceiling for Asian-Americans of both sexes.

...and a lack of prominent male role models who would inspire more Asian men to go for anchor jobs.

True, I have to agree with Mr. Friedman. If u think about it, many Asian men do not aspire to a career in the arts, media, and entertainment. This is a fact! They are just many more Asian Men in the "practical fields" such medicine, engineering and tech...Whatever the reasons, this is the apparent situation.

THE SOLUTION: Only if Asians want to establish their own media companies; because that's what THE JEWS did in the past. Is this so difficult to understand?

Screw the glass ceiling! only the sky is the limit!

Asians need to be more ambitious!    Sunday, April 14, 2002 at 20:21:05 (PDT)
Eddie Shin's a crack-up.
I still remember the time he pissed on Steven Stiffler's head in
"American Pie 2". *LOL*
Good thing he didn't bone Stiffler's mom too.

For what I've been reading here, is it safe to say that we've actually seen more AM/WF in romantic situations (like shown having sex) than, say, BM/WF on TV? As far as I remember, I've never seen BM/WF having sex on TV or making out passionately on camera. If it is true, maybe because Asians (males and females) are more accepted to the society than, say, blacks?

Hey Sick, you obviously don't like it when AM get together with WF but have no problems with WM (like yourself) getting together with AF I bet. Now that is hypocrisy!!! And finally, please stop referring to AF as bitches and if you don't like what you read on this website, GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!!
