New York Mayor Will Not March Without Sopranos

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said on Friday he will not march in the Columbus Day parade because organizers have refused to let him bring actors from the hit television show “The Sopranos.” The Italian-American group Columbus Citizens Foundation, which has run the parade for 58 years, asked Bloomberg to rescind his invitation to two Sopranos cast members because it was “deeply offended by this program’s extremely negative and ugly stereotyping of our people.

Apparently no one has told Mayor Boomberg, the Nanny of New York, that some of the Sopranos characters smoke. He’d probably march without them if he knew that.
