    Most likely all of the above, and most likely her tin-can rag was going down the shit-chute anyway, and she just wanted to blame it on the Mooslim Neegro.

    Evidence sure points that way. But all you really know about her is that she shut down a weekly publication created as an extension of another publication less than a decade ago. No more newsworthy than a regular-sized newspaper shutting one of its community sections. Happens all the time.

    All but a couple hundred of the 22,000 copies printed weekly were distributed free of charge. Not exactly a place that was printing money and not likely paying its staffers much beyond minimum wage. Place had three editors in three years. Now its out of its misery.

    But given that the election was in November, and whatever (if any) new taxes she was to face were coming in January, the timing was an unfortunate coincidence.

    actually, she made her point rather clear. so no, i know quite a bit more than that.

    and since you're assuming she paid her staff minimum wage, which is a stretch, i'm going to go ahead and assume the tax(es) she was referring to was the increase in personal income tax.

    so, once again, a woman, a job creator, who can afford to drop a half million to the cause of her favorite candidate, decides she doesn't like the outcome of a national election. what does she do?: she shit cans two dozen people and makes them pay dearly two weeks before christmas to make a point.

    is that her right? absolutely. does that make her a piece of fucking shit human being? not only yes, but fuck yes. hell, i have the right to watch a blind man get plowed over by a bus in the middle of the street and do nothing about it while it takes place. i'm just hoping some asshole won't sit around make excuses for me if i decide to do as much.
