Shut down and shut up with a MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• Chrysler announced plans to shut down all North American plants for at least a month. Ford will shut down 10 North American plants for an extra week in January. General Motors put the brakes on plans to create a new plant. At this point, the automakers can't be relied on to keep houseplants.
• Advertising Age reported Omnicom is poised to cut 3,500 jobs, speculating ad agency BBDO could be in trouble because of its ties to an ailing Chrysler. Wonder if agencies would ever consider shutting down for a month. Would anyone even notice?
• Senator Arlen Specter said he was sorry for telling Polish jokes while recently addressing a GOP group. Specter apparently asked if anyone in the audience was Polish, but when about ten people responded they were, the senator proceeded with his schtick anyway. Talk about being a dumb Pola… um, Politician.
