It’s about time those Whiteys realized they are on the list for elimination, and had better start doing something to protect their right to exist.

Rochester?

Solid Blue Rochester? The town full of Good Catholics voting for wave after wave of unioin thug Rats, so they could destroy the only big employer in town?

Betcha the plaintiff here is one of them.

What goes around...

Well, I grew up reading it, but I’m 74 years old now and haven’t, as I said, even saw a newspaper in years...

Meh, Charlton Heston could have played any of those guys. And the girls? Scarlett Johanssen.

I would have liked to have seen Charlton Heston play Shaka Zulu.

“Historically speaking, many corporate cultures have been rooted in biases that favor Americans of European descent over others,” Prieto said. “This has been well-documented.”

He asserts this without providing any of the substantial documentation

Their suit may get tossed as white male is not a protected class. A former coworker had problems (gov employee) who had issues with his minority female boss and a lawyer told him he can’t win on a discrimination charge as he is not a member of a protected class/group. He could try however, he was looking at large legal fees against unlimited gov entity and ended up not continuing with the claim of discrimination and was fired/dropped on his last day of his one year probation period and they even had security escort him out of the building with only his coat and said they would mail any remaining personal stuff or arrange for a pickup and someone stole a couple of his items as well as just icing on top of a bad situation.

“Inclusion” means “Exclude Whitey”.

“Diversity”” means “Kill Whitey”.

“Equity” means “Steal all of Whitey’s stuff”.

Private employers have been barred for decades from making employment decisions based on race.

Private Employers and Non-Press related Corporations have been held to a higher standard than Press related.

Whereas it should be the other way around since the Press is more powerful than they by far. The Press should be held to a higher standard as Journalistic standards and equality of race and sex should be there watch words.

But Today, sadly, They are not.

This is a superfluous lawsuit, Gannett is laying off everybody. Local newspapers owned by them have no local stories anymore. They even went so far as to cut out BC and the Wizard of ID from their papers, even when the author was the late Johnny Hart who grew up in Endicott.

At one time Gannett was a respected name in the media industry.

Not so today.

Amen!

They lost me as a reader of the Indianapolis Star with the constant leftist tilt to everything printed!
