Cancel the DM Register

As a libtard, I think I speak for most of us when we say F you Aaron. Good day y’all
And you might be Mother Teresa. Are you Mother Teresa?
Aaron Calvin is an easy target ND he deserves the ridicule. He is also just a flunkie. The higher ups at the register are the people that have obviously created this culture and then defend it. The same thing extends to Busch.
Busch got in trouble a few years ago for putting out a can that stated their beer helped the word no go away. Such a great thing to print on the side of a beer can. So much respect for women.
So their higher ups do this to Carson when they have done so much worse. Not to mention of course that they advertise plenty on comedy Central. Carson quoted tosh which is a pretty damned normal thing to do especially for a 16 year old kid. Had Busch not ever watched shows like tosh and south Park on a channel they advertise on? It is such a huge disconnect
I see Busch is in damage control this morning. I'm sure they made what they thought was a diversity HR type decision and would simply move on after helping Nike Carson. They were wrong.
This hasn't even really hot the national news platforms yet. It will and it will be bad.

He isn't. He is about as left as they come. Plenty of proof on his Facebook account that people were posting. Pictures with Bernie for example
What a dumb statement the DSM Register released on why they published it. Of course Carson was going to try to get ahead of it when you brought it to his attention in an interview, he thought you were going to publish it and you did. The fact he brought it up before the Register published made no difference.
I do t know the reporter, but I actually kind of feel bad for him. I assume he was just doing his job and what someone told him to do and now he’s taking the backlash. Whoever made the decision to publish should be fired.

Guessing by his tweets and posts, He's not "liberal". He's a new progressive...which bears little resemblance to being liberal. (small "L")

This thread is about the stupidest thing I've read in while. Just jam packed with hypocrisy and media talking points.
When I saw the Dana Loesch tweet I know the story had hit national radius.

This is a joke, right? Please tell me it's a joke.
Here's my thing. The register lied. Colvin contacted AB telling them about the tweets. The registry ****ing lied in a ****ing press release to cover their ass.
The Register has managed to do something even better than Carson King did... unite Iowa and ISU fans in a common cause.
Would it be wrong to sign up for the DMR just so I could cancel it? I'm a little jealous of those of you who can tell them to piss off
Carson should head over to Lincoln for gameday and have a sign that says Busch Light gives you the runs. Help me stock the cooler with Coors or miller
Venmo:blablabla
Lol
Venmo:blablabla
Lol
I'm a liberal on Carson's side. So are MOST of us. STFU you moron.
Way to get the reporter totally wrong because you were out on a political witch-hunt. You're no better that A-Aron Colvin.
Exactly. I just agreed with a Dana Loesch tweet FFS. I feel like I need a shower after this.
And whoever said this is hyper-progressives, not liberals, is dead on. This is why "woke" culture needs more sleep.
Please tell me the Iowa athletic department isn't in charge of the investigation.
Too soon?
Dumbass of the Day award voting is as follows:
A) Aaron Calvin
B) DSM Register
C) ISU PD Chief using the phrase "aggressive marching"
D) Anyone talking about politics in this thread
I expect a tight race.

If there's any good to all of this, it's perhaps the end of the practice for combing for tweets of people when they were 15 or 16 and having that ruin them many years later. This behavior has to end.

A little too late.
"Same high Standards"lol ..... if this were even remotely true you would not have been hired in the first place.
Call the Rag at 515-284-8000 then select 2 for news and then 4 for the editor. You can give the editor Carol Hunter who chose to run the hack job article a piece of your mind. Her mailbox not full and still taking messages.....
Me too. Turned into a terrible biased product that got worse due to the lack of proof reading the articles. Constant mistakes regarding spelling, improper grammar.
And the Rag has donated how much money to the cause? That’s right, nothing.
I posted this in another thread, but in case you don't read one of the other many on this subject, I have a bit more nuanced view on this. Here's what I said:
I may well get ripped for this, but IDGAF. Both Carson AND the DSM Register are in the wrong here. I don't care what age you were, you hopefully grow up and clean up your social media as you get older. I use stories like this to teach my kids all the time about the type of online reputation they want to leave. And racist jokes aren't funny. They are stupid, and tosh.0 was a stupid show. I'm glad its off the air so these little wannabes aren't hearing and regurgitating that idiot's shtick. Society has norms when it comes to racism. Sorry it bit a good kid in the butt later in his life, but if it wasn't the Register, it might have been an employer.
Now, that being said, the Register had NO BUSINESS putting it in the article it did. It had absolutely nothing to do with this awesome story. The kid has obviously grown up and matured. He could have pocketed that money, but he did something great. Something that will help kids of all ethnic, cultural, and socio-economic backgrounds. And ESPECIALLY this Aaron Calvin loser, who has the audacity to call out this kid for the EXACT same sin he himself committed. So while the apology is in order, the better thing for the Register to do would be to publicly admonish and fire Aaron Calvin.

Slightly off topic, but the CR Gaz is the same thing. A junior high English class does better proof-reading.
You understand that he was quoting a TV show right? A TV show that is still on the air and for which AB provides advertising dollars?
When I was 16 everyone was quoting things like the Breakfast Club or Caddy shack or some other stupid thing. This is no different.
Carson handled this with dignity and class. The truth is AB is more responsible for that tweet than Carson though....because they literally helped pay for it back when Tosh said it on air.
