Happily indifferent

My indifference to The Price is Right (a.k.a. The Lawsuit is On!) is well known. Or at least anybody who reads this blog knows about it.

But I have one more reason to rejoice that I don't care about a certain shopping show. Fired model Brandi Cochran has amended one of the 88 gazillion lawsuits buzzing around TPiR's carcass. Now she alleges reverse racial discrimination.

The suit claims that TPiR's producers wanted a Hispanic model to replace Brandi, who they fired for getting pregnant or gaining weight or being white or doing something. Is there any truth to the allegation? This is where my blissful indifference kicks in.

Maybe TPiR should require a lawsuit from each of their employees, just to get 'em out of the way. I was a little surprised when deposed announcer Rich Fields didn't head for the nearest law office. But Drew did give him the gig on Improv-a-Ganza, so maybe one legal action was nipped in the bud.
