Did you know that approximately $200 billion is grossed annually by the fast food industry?
Did you know that the average yearly salary of fast food employees in NYC is $11,000? Pretty small considering the City’s notorious sky-high rents and cost of living!

Once again Fox news is inciting hatred at a specific person. Why do we tolerate radio Radio Rwanda?

Sigh. Re: this post, I got a letter from the Color of Change people, relating their experiences with the CBC on its proposed joint-hosting venture with FOX: Read below the fold...
It appears our good friends at the CBC need a reminder of why the term "house negro" is deeply offensive and conditions which would engender its use be avoided.
