Anyone surprised by the non coverage?


Quote:
Chick Fil A has made national news for it’s owners’ stance on gay marriage. Anytime they do something even remotely non-PC, their supposed slip up goes viral. Hash tags pop up all over the place.

So why is that what they have done in the wake of the Orlando nightclub shooting hasn’t received a single mention on the mainstream new outlets?

It’s probably because people like New York City Mayor, Bill DeBlasio might have to eat crow instead of chicken. DeBlasio has said that Chick Fil A spreads a message of hate.

Not so yesterday. In a shocking move, the Orlando location at University and Rouse Road fired up its grills on Sunday. The chain is notorious for not being open, ever, on the first day of the week. Employees cooked up hundreds of their famous chicken sandwiches. They brewed dozens of gallons of sweet tea.

Because it doesn't push the "Christians are haters" mantra the MSM is looking for.

TeamObama & CampClinton are in an alliance to use the word - "Hate" as a Dog Whistle against Trump. They want to deflect that Islamic Terrorists support Sharia Law that demands Death to Gays

LGBT go under the Bus.

From CFA's Twitter:

Quote:
A few members of our awesome team decided to go into work on a Sunday and make some food for people waiting in line to donate blood. We love our city and love the people in our community. ‪#‎prayfororlando‬
The employees decided to do it.

If several members of your staff ask to open up to make a few chicken sandwiches for the blood donors contributing to the worst mass shooting in history you essentially have to do it or face a huge backlash.

Can you imagine a "no" from brass with the disappointed employees taking to social media?

Now that would go viral.

At the same time I really do hate the media so whatever.

Where was BLM, the ACLU, or any other civil rights minority / disenfranchised organization? Oh, that's right, they only care about their own causes!

Oh, so their motivation was to avoid a huge backlash? How do you know this?
