Trying to get through the week with MultiCultClassics Minutes…
• Wal-Mart is being accused of racial profiling, having Black customers pull over their shopping carts for searches and interrogations. A discrimination lawsuit has been filed by a group of customers in Massachusetts. And you thought this sort of stuff only happened to Oprah at Hermes.
• NBA nutcase Ron Artest rejoined his Indiana Pacers teammates for a summer camp. Artest vowed to improve his behavior and said, “As you get older, you get a bit more wise… Like everybody else, as they get older, they mature.” Right. Tell that to 40+ year old, 17-year Major League Baseball veteran Kenny Rogers.
• WNBA superstar Katie Smith of the Minnesota Lynx became the first professional women’s player to score 5000 points. Smith already owns two Olympic gold medals, a retired number from Ohio State, league championships, nearly every Lynx team record and more. Her next challenge: beat Ron Artest’s flagrant foul record.
• Ogilvy & Mather executives were sentenced to prison terms for their roles in the White House Drug Office Fraud Case. Shona Seifert will serve 18 months and pay a $125,000 fine; Thomas Early gets 14 months with a $10,000 fine. That’s what happens when you abuse drug accounts.
• Two Indiana men claim to have purchased advance copies of the latest Harry Potter title. The book is officially scheduled for release on June 16 at 12:01am, but these guys managed to snag their editions sooner. Who. Gives. A. Shit.
