Elaine Coan/Imposters?


During the early part of August, we heard about Muscle Shoals employee Elaine Coan calling another employee "Aunt Jemima." We didn't run with the story since it's our experience the City of Muscle Shoals refuses to comment on such issues. Now the story has made the TimesDaily, and apparently every word sent to us was completely true.


The TD did report that Coan was having to watch a film on diversity. This is the Human Resources Director; she should have these things down pat by now. So we guess she won't be getting anyone else's job, now will she? Oh, just picking a name at random, she won't be usurping Ricky Williams' position anytime soon. 

Et tu, Elaine...and all that.

(Coan's first name was listed incorrectly when this article was first published. Apologies to readers.)

We frequently come to the defense of those unfairly named as members of our blogging group. It usually makes no difference. So now we'll try a different tact.

Yes, both the Lauderdale and Colbert writer mentioned a few weeks ago are part of our team. It makes no difference that we had never even heard of the Colbert writer. We even embarrassed ourselves by asking her real name. 

So, yes, they both have great senses of humor; that automatically makes them us. Just keep it under your hat...matter of national security and all that.

  1. At least no one called her Betty Crocker. I would hate to have to tear down the Betty Crocker statues.
