Actress intimidated out of a production...
-
I'm pretty sure political affiliation would fit into woody's precious protected list. You can't fire someone based on what political party they support
-
Its not "fair" but actors/actress, and people who are consider face of businesses(PR people) are more preventive in expressing views or opinions that are different from the parent company or are considered controversial. A film/show/theater company would rather drop a small name actor/actress than to face any bad press or potential boycott.
Political views are not protected in most states specially if you are talking about it at work.

Ugh
They weren't being fired just because they support the political party they do. They were being fired because the the potential effects from that support. Boycotts, angry groups at the theater, effects on the other actors, etc. Just the fact that she supported a Tea Party candidate alone isn't why she's being fired.
I'm guessing if you were fired because you were a Rep and your boss was a Dem them you could call byllshit and file something. Assuming there was nothing ejse going on there

You gotta understand, Leroy, you're a fine employee I like you personally as a matter of fact many of my friends are African American. But gee whiz some of the customers here, well, you know, they aren't as cultured as I am so... Anyway good luck on the job search I'll be sure to give you a good recommendation. And merry Christmas to you and the family.

There is a big difference when firing someone based off race and than based off a political opinion, comparing the 2 is kind of absurd. Now if the Employee was for abortion while the Employer was fervently against it(or vice versa), then the Employer could fire the Employee if he wanted(in most states this is allowed).
-
Sorry if you got the wrong idea, Leroy. It's not because of your skin color, no siree Bob! But as I recall didn't you vote for Obama last election? And didn't you have an Obama sticker on your car?
Security could you escort Leroy of the premises?

Pretty much, though you would risk alienating customers that where pro-obama if it came to light that you hire/fire based off who someone votes for. So it would be better practice not to directly say that and to fire Leroy for another reason(even if its borderline made up). http://www.ncsl.org/research/labor-and-employment/discrimination-employment.aspx

Actually counselor I fired him for having an Obama sticker on his car. And we can all be coy about it but let that happen once and let's hear the lawsuits blaring out.
And I'm not required to offend everyone equally. I'm sure there are some people who are pro enforcing the laws of the land spending within the budget etc who felt Maria Conchita should not have been shit canned.

So...in essence fired not for performance but for supporting an unpopular political party. Sounds like a lawsuit to me

Hahaha, no way that would be a top program. It would be boring. You really think the crew on deadliest catch is dealing with "everyday problems"? When was the last time you risked your life on the ocean? But if you want to just say this us popular and this isn't based on your opinion, go ahead. Some people on this board do the sane thing....
So Hollywood is evil? Are we morally bankrupt because of weed and sex without marriage? I see nothing wrong with either of those things. Luckily we've progressed since the thirties.

Are you sure? And what do you base that on?

I like how she's drummed out of the "Latin"community by insinuating that people should do the right thing. Sort of like how Bill Cosby has been criticized for saying similar things. I mean who gives a shit who is going to pay for undocumented migrants, what's more important is were they offended?

Didn't one of these articles also say that candidate was against some measures that would help current illegals gain citizenship? That might not have helped. I also would say that isn't necessarily the "right" thing
-
Ice Dawg, so let me just get it straight
- against gay marriage
- against legalizing weed
- hollywood is a liberal wasteland
anything else?
I do enjoy the marriage and sex morals though. I wonder if that is what they told all those damned flapper girls.

By what is popular on TV now. You really think a show about some rural farmer and his generic, white, christian family would be a hit? Why? So people could watch a show about how they wish all American families acted? I mean I guess with all the super right and left wing media I guess it has a chance. There are networks entirely dedicated to church stuff and they survive. But I guess that would be paid for through the church

See "Duck Dynasty". See Christian, white family make duck calls, hunt, and be very funny.
See a huge, blockbuster hit.
See woodpecker crack his beak.

Fake and staged are two different things.
The family is very real, very genuine. We were just on vacation there, and met several regular
folks around town who say the Robertson family has been who they appear to be on TV,
in real life, behind the scenes, for decades.
The show? Of course it's scripted to a point. But it's also based on real things that have happened.
Like Si taking his scooter to go to the deli to get some tea. It really happened. The owner is the son
of the woman who works at the hotel we stayed at. Read the books, talk to real people, Logic.
There is nothing completely fake about the Robertsons, or the show. In fact, Si is the one character
who doesn't have any scripted lines in the show.
Calling "completely fake" is total nonsense.

No? Not becoming a citizen and sucking off the government Is the right thing to do? Your parents must have sued people for money because that shows a real skewed moral compass
