Wit and wisdom from Murdochland

Posted by AlM on Sun Jul 30 12:50:40 2017

“I note that two of the best-paid women presenters in the BBC — Claudia Winkelman and Vanessa Feltz, with whose, no doubt, sterling work I am tragically unacquainted — are Jewish. Good for them. Jews are not generally noted for their insistence on selling their talent for the lowest possible price, which is the most useful measure there is of inveterate, lost-with-all-hands stupidity. I wonder, who are their agents? If they’re the same ones that negotiated the pay for the women on the lower scales, then maybe the latter have found their true value in their marketplace.”

OK, it was op-ed. It probably did not represent the actual opinions of the owners of the newspaper.

The Sunday Times fired Kevin Myers. That ought to have made that clear.

Besides, that "pay gap" is a myth perpetrated by communists. Why else does the Red China constitution proclaim "equal pay for equal work" in its Article 48 (modeled after the USSR's constitution; Article 122 of the 1936 constitution and Article 35 of the 1977 constitution), a slogan Obama appropriated (and there was no shortage of Mao-lovers in his administration)?
