Waitress Makes $3,600 in Donations After Receiving 'Racist Note.' Now Her Story's Falling Apart. | Daily Wire

Quote:
Last month, liberal outlets like The Huffington Post and Raw Story eagerly pounced on the story, holding up Virginia waitress Kelly Carter as the perfect example of Racist White America. Carter, a black woman, claimed she received no tip and a racist note on a receipt from a customer she waited on, which read, "Great service, don’t tip black people." The waitress received attention from national publications, the NAACP and the VA attorney general and raked in thousands of dollars in donations. Turns out, the whole thing could be yet another "hate" hoax. The lawyer of the "racist" customer is accusing Carter of fabricating the note, and closer examination of the receipt seems to back up his claim.
...What a surprise. Really sad so many got suckered into donating money.

The fake hate hoax is a good gig if you can profit from it as this woman has. It doesn't really matter because foolish people will be deprived of their money by any manner of hucksters.

Ho-hum. Fake "hate events" are a dime a dozen and getting cheaper.

Wonder what she did with the profits?

Receipt is a reprint. (fact. Look at the top)

If electronic signature from pad, the receipt unlikely to have any note below signature line. Also bill would be a penny higher for the 1 cent tip.

If manual signature the signature is fake and this is a crime.

agree? disagree?

This is no different than the fake homeless guy standing in the median with a sign begging for money.

Shouldn't this be "Waitress Receives $3,600 in Donations After Receiving 'Racist Note. ?

Otherwise it reads that she is the one that made the donations.
