I just ran across this site for The Apprentice: The Apprentice Rules It's awesome! You should be sure to read the scathing memo they wrote to Bradford who was fired this week.

That memo did not reflect Trumps reason for firing him though. Someone who watched the extended version on Saturday saw Trump say that Bradford did not respect his win from last week and did not want him to set a precedent for leaders to negate the value of the win by giving up the free pass. I should have linked that post. I will go find it now or maybe someone who watched the extra board room will come by. Interesting site, I wonder if Trump will agree with their take on the rules of business.

this was in today's NY Post - Page Six http://www.nypost.com/gossip/28928.htm (she's a "Restaurateur" of a Subway sandwich shop ) Wonder if they will actually sue her? NBC MAY PUT BITE ON 'APPRENTICE' A MEMBER of the second season of "The Apprentice" has found herself in hot water after walking the red carpet at the TV Guide post-Emmy party across the street from the Pacific Design Center. Stacie J., a model and Subway sandwich shop owner from Harlem, "gave interviews to report ers and talked about the show," said a door defender at the party. Another source said, "That violates her NBC contract." A rep for the show said: "Our lawyers have advised that we cannot comment on any legal action that may or may not be applied to Stacie J." Mean while, across town at the Mondrian, the fire marshals put a damper on the "Entertainment To night" and "The In sider" Emmy after- party, and refused entry to a long line of people — but were star-struck enough to allow Diana Ross and five others to join Kelsey Grammer, David Hyde Pierce, Allison Janney, Zach Braff and Simon Cowell in side.

Kwame from last season has been hired to do a show on CNN, which they describe as a kind of "Inside the Actor's Studio" for business types.

Fire breaks out at former Sun-Times building December 29, 2004 No one was hurt in a fire Wednesday morning at the former Chicago Sun-Times building, which is being demolished to make way for a 90-story condominium and hotel tower developed by real estate mogul Donald Trump. The blaze, which apparently started in the building's ventilation system and was fueled by insulation in ductwork, burned for about an hour and a half before firefighters struck it out at 10:24 a.m., fire officials said. Fire investigators would interview the 22 construction workers who were in the building, Chicago Fire Department spokesman Larry Langford said. A total of 125 firefighters worked on the blaze, Langford said. Two suffered minor smoke inhalation and were sent to the hospital despite their objections, he said. It was initially unclear where in the ventilation system the fire started, Fire Commissioner Cortez Trotter said. The blaze sent clouds of smoke floating north of Chicago's downtown Loop district. The Sun-Times occupied the building just off of Chicago's Magnificent Mile from 1958 until October, when staff moved to new offices a few blocks west. "The Apprentice," Chicagoan Bill Rancic, is in charge of developing the Trump property. It will replace a building that, as the story goes, was supposed to look like a river barge and is arguably the ugliest building in a city known for its soaring, elegant architecture. The building is a big part of the history of Chicago journalism. Legendary newsman Mike Royko worked there. So did Ann Landers. Bill Mauldin was working there when he drew one of the most enduring editorial cartoons, that of the Abraham Lincoln statue from the Lincoln memorial grieving the assassination of President Kennedy. http://www.suntimes.com/output/news/suntimes29.html

It still breaks my heart that they've destroyed this building for a trump ego-enhancing building.

I worked at the Sun Times from 1978-1980. I was a receptionist for Royko. There was actually another smaller fire in 1980. I was 7 months pregnant with my son. I was escorted down 2 flights of smoke filled stairs by 2 very strong Chicago Fire Fighters. It was scary. No alarms went off and no alert was given. By the time we realized somethng was wrong we were trapped ion our office. (I haven't thought about that in a long time). My heart broke when I heard that it was being torn down. I had some great memories there.

Now this proves to me that something is wrong. Supposedly the world hates Omorosa and does not want to see her any more. Yet, she is now doing BK commercials. What does this mean? Dalm aka Steve.

I guess it means she's got a good agent. I went to the Burger King web site and tried to send them an email, but they don't accept emails. What kind of company in this day and age doesn't accept emails?????

I don't care who your agent is. Supposedly, according to supply and demand, corporations are supposed to give people what they want so the corporations can make money. That is what is great about capitalism. Why would BK give us what we supposedly do not want? Unless, we really want her and don't know it. Dalm

I think they are banking on name recognition. Somebody MUST like Omarosa or we wouldn't keep seeing her pop up on television...maybe there is a sector of the population who likes her (although I can't for the life of me figure out why...LOL).

That's surprising, that Burger King does not accept email. Hmmmph. Well, let's call our local Burger Kings and tell them we will not be eating there until the Omarosa ad is pulled. I really don't like them rewarding such a terrible role model.

‘Apprentice’ winner fights the good fight By Inside Track Sunday, January 9, 2005 Kelly Perdew, the latest winner of ``The Apprentice,'' is helping his fiancee fight breast cancer, Star magazine reports. The Donald's new right-hand man found out his fiancee, Therisa Stewart, was diagnosed with the disease right after he began filming the hit NBC show. ``It's a very serious, very aggressive form of breast cancer,'' a friend of Kelly's tells the maggie. ``Obviously, Therisa's health has been weighing heavily on Kelly behind the scenes - but they're both incredibly strong people and Therisa is a terrific battler.'' http://thetrack.bostonherald.com/starTracks/view.bg?articleid=62612

Just zipped off a nasty little e-mail to Burger King asking them why a corporation like Burger King would have an <> person such as Omarosa as a spokesperson. I also asked them if they thought having <> would make people want to buy their product. <la>

<314> Anyway, this Leonardo dude swears he is not the person to be sending e-mail. I asked him for a good e-mail address of the <LC> at Burger King that thought Omarosa would be a wonderful spokesperson and we would all want to buy whoppers and croissanwiches if she was BK's spokesperson, and I would post it, but he said iffin he gave me one, he would get fired. Sooo....

Crispin Porter + Bogusky is the advertising agency of record for Burger King at the moment. You can search their website to find a contact for the account exec for the burger king account and talk to them about Omarosa. In the world of advertising, Leonardo isn't the person you want to talk to. Try their ad agency.
