In reply to the discussion: McDonald's Tells Workers It Doesn't Endorse Political Candidates After Trump Visit [View all]Wiz Imp
(3,017 posts)The point should have been obvious (and I think it was to most people). The original post included a link to the Bloomberg article but left open the question of whether McDonald's corporate knew and approved of the stunt. Numerous people responded speculating whether corporate knew or not. Multiple people assumed they did not. So I posted the article to make it clear that they knew and that would answer those persons' questions. I just made the reference to the Bloomberg article because the portion that could be read by the vast majority of people did not contain any reference to corporate knowledge. I thought it was obvious that what I was saying is that the Bloomberg article didn't mention it in such a way that many people would see it. The fact that they did mention it at the very end of the article may have made me technically wrong but anybody seeing just this post would never know that. If somebody else had made my same exact post, I wouldn't care that the reference to Bloomberg was technically incorrect. I would have appreciated that somebody posted a link to a different article which made the full story clear right up front.
