In the course of setting up tomorrow’s MTNP radio program, I communicated with Alex Rosenwald, the Director of Media Outreach for Americans for Limited Government (ALG). Little did I know that, in addition to efficiently arranging for a guest for the program (Ellen Sauerbrey), Alex was at the center of an explosive story that is still unfolding as I type. Mark Levin is even talking about it on his radio show.
From the ALG President Bill Wilson (a guest on MTNP radio last week) in a press release earlier today:
ALG Statement in Response to NBC "Bite me, Jew Boy" Email
Bill Wilson, President, Americans for Limited Government
Americans for Limited Government is appalled that an employee of the NBC news network apparently felt it was appropriate to send an email to an ALG employee, in response to a standard news release, saying, "Bite me, Jew Boy."
According to ALG records, the email came from the Blackberry and email address of Jane Stone, a producer for NBC’s Dateline. The email was sent to Alex Rosenwald, the ALG Director of Media Outreach. The news release to which Ms Stone apparently responded was one in which ALG called upon Congress to defund ACORN.
Americans for Limited Government does not contend that NBC or its parent company GE, are anti-Semitic. What is highly disturbing, however, is that there clearly is a culture at NBC that has allowed this person who clearly has issues to go unchecked.
Ms Stone claims she did not send the offensive email. If that is not the case, we at ALG call upon her to help ascertain who did send it using her Blackberry and her email address. If Ms Stone did, in fact, send it, we at ALG call upon Ms Stone to apologize to Mr. Rosenwald, and we call upon the NBC hierarchy above Ms Stone to join her in issuing that apology.
