Here is the full text of Atlanta Hawks owner Bruce Levenson's email.

Thanks for posting that full-text as I had not come across it previously. This completely validates my previous comments on this matter that I made from reading snippets of the e-mail. This is a candid business evaluation of data and discussion of how to achieve the desired demographic for season-ticket sales that leads to other cash-generating entities for the franchise. Perhaps a case could be made for being too candid but I read nothing outrageous or shocking.

After reading the whole email, i didn't see anything racist. He didn't disparage blacks. He merely pointed out facts, and added deductive reasoning.

My guess is he's selling because NOW there is no way the Hawks will recover (because Americans have a problem with reality), and he wants to cash out.
