After Jesse's intervention, Croom could not possibly have been hired - it would have smelled of blackmail. The man needs to pick his battles and that was not one of them!!!!! He is embarressing to all -- black and white alike.

Being that Jackson is big in the NAACP, normally people who think they were shafted so to speak come to the NAACP or the EEOC for help, not the other way around. So in his defense, I think he was just doing his job, which is to investigate the allegations. Who would know anything about the situation if the people involved didn't say anything.....
