Caught helping Stacey Abrams hide encouragement for Georgia losing the All-Star Game, USA Today’s publisher Gannett apologizes
American Thinker ^ | 04/28/2021 | Thomas Lifson

The largest publisher of newspapers in the United States by total circulation has been caught red-handed engaging in Orwellian rewriting of history to help Stacey Abrams hide her promotion of the boycott of her home state of Georgia by the MLB all-Star Game.

Ms. Abrams is regarded as a savior by many on the left, even future presidential material, and is even excused for delusionally claiming to be the actual elected governor of Georgia after losing that race by tens of thousands of votes, despite the left’s new dogma pronouncing it a crime against democracy to question the legitimacy of Joe Biden’s election. Her promotion of the doctrine of Black “voter suppression” when IDs are required for voting, and her energetic promotion of registration and vote gathering efforts by Democrats have given her a status as an untouchable goddess, apparently.  Even as Black registration and turnout in Georgia put the lie to the suppression narrative.

But Abrams’s seeming support of MLB punishing Georgia by moving away the All-Star Game after Georgia passed a sensible election integrity law turned out to harm a lot a Black people in metropolitan Atlanta, which is reckoned to have lost about a hundred million dollars in spending from fans traveling there for the game. Spending that would have benefitted local hotels and restaurants owned by and employing Blacks, as well as countless other indirect beneficiaries.

Can’t have the Great Black Hope losing support among Georgia Blacks, especially if she runs for office again. Ryan Mills describes the memory-holing:

The media lying’s and withholding legitimate news to benefit the left is presumed and expected. It’s news when it tells the truth or runs a story that criticizes the left, and I still suspect their motives.

Delta, Coke and other woke corporations should form a task force to assist US Citizens and Georgia residents to obtain an ID allowing them to vote, fly, enter buildings, stay at motels, etc. Of course they will not because the lack of an ID is a sham.

And American Thinker is contributing to the problem by capitalizing “black” like a good little conformist.

I am from Georgia, and one thing we Georgians found out in the last election is that Stacy Abrams is a public enemy, despicable, disgusting, corrupt, a liar. She may be a “goddess” (say again?) to the left, but to normal people, she is a puke inducing criminal. She did more damage to this state and the issues important to the black community than did Sherman when he burned his way through the state. But. at least, Sherman did it for a good reason, not the self-serving purposes of Stacy Abrams. I pray for God’s good justice for this awful woman.

Gannett is just another propaganda arm of the democrat party. This should surprise no one.
