Lets start off a video about inappropriate behavior with a little inappropriate behavior of their own. OMG THOSE GIRLS ARE HAWT, oh what? yeah bad law-firm for being insensitive.

Oh, yeah, joking around and saying that some girl in a video looks hot is exactly the same as robosigning foreclosures and laughing at the people you helped evict.

Right.

Yeah that guy sounded like a complete idiot and he had nothing to add to the conversation.

This is fucking despicable though. The Daily Show had it best when everyone was whining about how Bankers and Moneyed individuals were getting picked on. We've seen this shit, Enron laughing about peoples homes burning down cause they'd get money for it. These lawyer bastards...it's been done and we're sick of it.

We haven't even begun to pick on you yet.

I never claimed the two were equivalent, or even close in offensiveness. I do think its moronic to say something so stupid in the middle of a piece about the atrocious behaviors of a law firm. Not only is it insensitive to suddenly objectify two women in the middle of a conversation that had no bearing on the attractiveness of people, but to interrupt the conversation with something so banal gives the impression he doesn't really give a shit about what they're talking about.

Hopefully Baum loses some business over this, but unfortunately I don't see it hurting him in the long run. I understand he was fined $2 million for the actual acts of fraud, so I guess that's something...
