Re: ''Jeopardy'' producers pilloried for expecting contestants to give correct responses

Posted by Orange Blossom Special on Wed Jan 15 19:53:44 2020, in response to "Jeopardy" producers pilloried for expecting contestants to give correct responses, posted by Spider-Pig on Wed Jan 15 17:35:36 2020.

I whole-heartedly thank you for this post.
I was just at an art exhibitition for near east paintings of the 19th century primarily. You walk in, there is an old french map, etc. But two of the paintings listed 4 lands, one being "Palestine". The 19th century map had no such place on it. If they said Israel, which still would have been odd since it was occupied in the 19th century, they would've gotten protest. But I guess they won't hear anything by using the "p" word, unless I do so.
Plus they misquoted the Bible.

I think it's time we proportionately protest this opposite "PC" garbage. Ottoman Empire, South Syria, or Israel. But it's not a small town in east Texas. That looks sloppy in an academic setting.
