Overheard on the headsets during the broadcast of the Republican National Convention:
Director: Camera two, get me a shot of a minority, one of the delegates.
(Pause)
Director: Are women minorities, Camera two? Last I heard we were about 50/50. Get me a minority.
Director: Hey you there, the guy with the clipboard.
Producer: (indistinguishable)
Director: Yes, I know you have a name, young man. I just don't care enough to remember it. Answer me, haven't we shown that African American guy before, the one in the POW hat?
Producer: (indistinguishable)
Director: I thought so. All right Camera two, the guy in the eye patch will have to do. Listen, Clipboard, in 2012 I want some minorities I can put on the screen. Get me?
