Insider Did Really Really Publish an Article with, Yes, a "Jew" Joke

 Here is that article.

I am not Jewish. But because of the deep New York accent and Eastern European facial features and body style I am often taken for Jewish. You bet, I have been verbally roughed up. 

Meanwhile, I am proud to say that at one time I had been on retainer to law firm Paul Weiss. From its founding in 1875, the firm has pushed back against anti-semitism.

Recently, the chairperson Brad Karp has organized other leading law firms to denounce antisemitism.

The Cryptos - Remember How They Crowed to Us Dinos About Their Wealth ...

  Today, bitcoin closed at $21,685.02, documents   The Wall Street Journal . But earlier in the day it was coasting down to the $20,000 layers of loser hell. Since its peak at $67,802.30 in November 2021, the market value is down 68%. Of course, in financial (as well as legal) trouble are the Winklevoss Twins. Their Gemini empire is laying off and there is no projection of things getting back any time soon. So here we dinos are. Not that we are doing so hot in our stocks and bonds. But if we had diversified we likely didn't already lose and probably won't lose so much as the crypto crowd. How they gushed about their ability to build wealth quickly in the blockchain economy. I had done some video scripting for them. Like the Silicon Valley tribes they had their own language. And their own snobbery.  Will that digital asset niche return? If it does it will be highly regulated. The demand for that from investors who have been hit so hard will bombard all branches of federal ...

AM LAW 100 2022 REPORT In the latest rollout of data about Big Law, the Am Law 100 Report documented this: In the Revenue-Per-Lawyer category, Paul Weiss’ results jumped 21% from 2020.

POSITION OF STRENGTH Yes, Paul Weiss does litigation. However, its motherlode is in transactional. That’s its position of strength during these volatile global economic times and as the overall law-firm market is returning to normal after two years of pandemic boom. Brad Karp has been the Paul Weiss Chairperson since 2008. That means he got the law firm through the 2008 – 2009 carnage, making hay of the recovery opportunity, COVID, and current cooling of M&A and IPOs.

Law Students - Subreddit for Big Law As Ultimate Mentor

The  subreddit for Big Law  is, again, the ultimate mentor.  An introvert posed the  query  about how social he has to be to succeed as a summer. He frames the question this way: If he attends all scheduled social events and stays until 10:00 AM is that "enough?" Or, does he have to move on the party-after-the-party? And, drink a lot of alcohol?  26 detailed, thoughtful comments came in. Essentially the answer was: Enough. After all law firms are filled with nerds. The guidance was to be cordial with everyone during those events as well as back in the office. (And, yes, summer is being done RTO).  As for the party-after-the-party there are stern warnings about the inherent peril. Excess, especially of alcohol consumption, has been known to cause a career setback. One law firm ousted the summer mid-internship.  A previous discussion on the subreddit had advised summers about appropriate attire. Connect with Editor-in-Chief Jane Genova at janegenova...
