Here we have a good case of friendly fire and kike hypocrisy. Slightly old news but still interesting.

In October 2007, it was announced that B&H Photo agreed to pay US$4.3 million to settle allegations that it discriminated against Hispanic workers.[8]
In November 2009, a lawsuit against B&H Photo alleged that the store refused to hire women, in violation of New York City and New York State Human Rights Laws.[9] The lawsuit, brought by four women, seeks class action status on behalf of all women discriminated against by B&H over the course of many years.[10] Given B&H's prior alleged discriminatory practices,[8] the lawsuit seeks US$19 million in compensatory and punitive damages in order to deter future discriminatory practices.[11]

History [edit]
B&H opened as a storefront film shop on the Lower East Side run by Herman Schreiber and his wife, Blimie (the store's name comes from their initials). The store quickly outgrew its space. B&H moved to a large loft on West 17th Street in the Photo District in the 1970s. Catering to the needs of neighborhood artists, B&H expanded to selling film equipment as well as photo products. In 1997 the store moved to its present location. It now has a staff of over 1,500 employees.[7] B&H's flagship store is located in West [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midtown_Manhattan"]Midtown Manhattan[/ame] (also known as "Hell's Kitchen") at 420 Ninth Avenue (at the intersection with 34th Street). On Tuesday October 30, 2007, B&H opened a second floor above its original sales floor making a total of 70,000 sq ft (6,500 m2) of sales space. The first floor encompasses professional lighting, binoculars and scopes, video, audio, darkroom, film, and both home and portable entertainment; the second floor focuses on both conventional as well as digital photography, computers, printers, scanners, and related accessories.[1][[ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability"]not in citation given[/ame]
