Interesting fact... I live in east Tennessee and this action appeared on our local "news" outlets... BUT there wasn't a single word about this as being the reason she was fired. They talked all around the subject and mused and speculated on the WHY? but did not tell about this important aspect of the story. She was presented as an affable person who got caught up in politics.
Our local news (and probably this goes for all of you) is just as compromised as the national MSM. They have ZERO ethical standards and ZERO journalistic standards.
You should call the reporter or station manager and ask them why they didn't include this tidbit. At the very least, email. They NEED to hear from us that we are fed up. Even though they know it, they still need to be reminded, constantly.
I found out that contacting TV stations, much like writing letters to the editor of a local newspaper, is futile. In truth, they don't want to hear from the peasants, the old days of "the customer is always right" is a fantasy now. Corporations and media go where the biggest bucks are, and that's in advertising AND in pleasing the corporate poobahs. I no longer watch these stations for news... I tune in to see if there's been a shooting anywhere near me, and what the weather forecast is, then I turn if off.
That may be the case, but still better to harass them with your opinions. You never know who is on the other end and may be ripe to listen. In fact, I saw a program on how google was losing it's 'fact checkers' at youtube to the red pill. Watching all these 'conspiracy' videos and controverstial subjects was waking people up. Maybe it will be some low level flunkie that you awaken, but that would still be a huge win.
I honestly don't think a lot of cities are as blue as they'd have us believe. There was cheating EVERYWHERE. In Tennessee, Nashville and Memphis are the obvious places for voter fraud. I believe that one county that's a black suburb of Memphis (Hays county?) is "blue" as well. But I'd imagine even in smaller cities like Knoxville and Chattanooga there was probably a lot of cheating. Not Fulton county levels, but still cheating.
I mean, even some small middle of nowhere counties in Montana had proven cheating in the numbers of a several thousand votes, when the entire counties only had 10-20 thousand people. Those are BIG percentages. They really overplayed their hand in the last election. I believe Pillow Man said that based solely on the digital cheating he caught and has analyzed, EVERY state in the union, all 50 of them, should have a 10% higher GOP margin at minimum.
By that logic, Tennessee should be 33% red, Knoxville and Chattanooga are probably deep red and Memphis and Nashville are probably light blue based on this alone, but when you account for all the other forms of cheating, they're probably pink-moderately red counties/cities.
Another odd anomaly is that Knoxville and Chattanooga had an odd left shift, whereas the Johnson City Metro (the fourth largest city and metro in the state of Tennessee), which is also in East Tennessee had a massive rightward shift. The demographics for all three metros are basically identical, as is the culture and general attitude. So that makes very little sense. I mean, Johnson city is even a college city, just like Knoxville with ETSU being located there. And don't even get me started with the influx of conservative people into east Tennessee (Knoxville and Chattanooga specifically) from nearby "blue" states that are looking for some freedom. I think there was something like 200-300K conservatives from Virginia alone the past decade that have moved into the area because they got tired of being in what amounts to a DC suburb. And I don't mean people in general, I mean actual conservatives. Like 90% of all people who move to Tennessee are conservative and moving there for the same reason liberals move to Colorado. They want to be with like minded people and love mountain views. (For all intents and purposes, Tennessee is the east coast , conservative Colorado.)
Oh thank you for the county info. Thats awesome. Is it relatively based around there you think? I moved to Utah and was sad to see not many based folks
Oh absolutely based. Any visit to a local gun show will reveal hundreds if not THOUSANDS of like-minded people. Knox County as a whole votes Red, but the small footprint of the city of Knoxville, surrounded by Knox County, is a mixture of Red and Blue...mostly because the Univ. of Tennessee is there (libs everywhere) and there is a large minority population in the city (reflexively and unthinkingly Democrat.... it seems to be in their DNA). But anywhere north, south, east, and especially WEST of Knoxville proper is God's country.
Ugh I havenโt bought a house yet. Worked myself into debt in my early 20s, finally paid that off in my late 20s and now I am having my 2nd baby next February. Money has gone everywhere else but a house is in our future. So for now we rent
Either go all the way southeast to Cleveland, TN (I have relatives there), or go all the way northeast to Blountville, TN (I also have relatives there). It will help if you are southern or have some connection to the area. We like to ask about who you're related to and which church you go to. You have to fit in and not try to change a thing about the place.
I'd tell you more about these places, but I might dox myself.
BTW, The Spot in Cleveland has pretty good hamburgers.
I would ask which Station; but is it outta Nashville, Memphis or truly East aka Knoxville or Chattanooga? I donโt have TV but want to digg on the Station.
Out of Knoxville, ALL THREE STATIONS (WATE, WBIR, and WVLT) have all had their share of dimwitted leftist garbage on the air. And they all seem so f#*king DENSE that they don't seem to be aware of updates on stories and end up talking about nonsense that has already been debunked or added to.
Add to that the frequent hilarious mispronunciations of the most common words, and you just have to laugh at them. Last year some sheep escaped a pen and caused some traffic problems.... reporting on the story, some bimbo tried to pronounce the word ewe... and it came ouf "EE WEE." I shit you not.
These are the Deep Thinkers we have in local TV land.
Right. Well giving the sheep a pass & hoping they have the ABILITY to come around seems hopeless at this stage. THEN ADD a vaxx that gives โmental fogโ...holy crap.
Are you a native, (I use to think all natives were from Africa. (First time ask me if I was a native, I said, "I ain't no native, I was born here!")) of Tennessee?
I ask that because I just finished two book about David Crockett. I love reading old books while going on Google Earth, and looking up the places referenced in the book.
I was born and raised in a small, rural mountain town in upper east Tennessee, which was pretty cut off from the rest of the world. It was an all day trip on winding roads just to get to Knoxville, so we made that trip only two or three times a year.
I'm as native as you can get, but am fairly well educated and worked most of my life in a technical field. Have traveled the world and served in the USMC.
I also grew up in a small southern town. I only have a high school education, but formal education is not the only road to become educated, right. If you grew up in a small isolated rural area, I bet some of the people whom you'll regard to your dying day as "the smartest people I ever knew" are from your same town, and had very little formal education. This is the way it is with me. My dad will always be the smartest, most highly respected person I'll ever know, and he went till the third grade.
BTW - I also have a technical background, and work as a software consultant now, doing the same job that people with college educations do.
True, oh so true. In my time I have known some of the most resourceful and broad-knowledge people, and not all of whom had gone to college. They found other avenues to achieve life goals. Sadly I have also known some of the most highly educated dunces you could imagine. Some years ago I came across the term "IYI" ... "intellectual yet idiot".
Given the state of today's education system (and I know because I worked for a few years at a large southern university), I expect the IYI phenomenon to just get worse. No one is allowed to fail anymore, especially if they belong to a minority group. The future of America is that the professional classes will be polluted by low-performing dunces who got through the system on pity and msguided tolerance.
TV personality Mike Rowe understands this, that all work is ennobling, and that we need to understand that the farmer, the machinist, the truck driver, the oil rig worker, the people doing everyday jobs are what keeps America fed and moving.

Yes they are...remember they're all affiliates of the big groups who all get their marching orders from the cabal.
Truth

Ok I am moving to Tennessee this is the final straw. What city am I moving to? You pick!
Knox County is great, city of Knoxville is enemy held territory. Blount County is good...so is Loudon County.
I honestly don't think a lot of cities are as blue as they'd have us believe. There was cheating EVERYWHERE. In Tennessee, Nashville and Memphis are the obvious places for voter fraud.

Depends on how much house you want/need. Home values around the Nashville Area (5 Counties) have doubled in the last 5 years
Ugh I havenโt bought a house yet. Worked myself into debt in my early 20s, finally paid that off in my late 20s and now I am having my 2nd baby next February. Money has gone everywhere else but a house is in our future. So for now we rent
What is rent like where you are from?
Iโm between Knoxville & Chattanooga...stay out of city Counties tho. I like Roane or Miegs but do your research?
Thats exactly where my research brought me. Thank you for your thoughts!!
Happy moving!!! (BEST move of my life).
Either go all the way southeast to Cleveland, TN (I have relatives there), or go all the way northeast to Blountville, TN (I also have relatives there).

Where are my West Tennessee boys at, come on mayyne!
Are you a native, (I use to think all natives were from Africa. (First time ask me if I was a native, I said, "I ain't no native, I was born here!")) of Tennessee?
I ask that because I just finished two book about David Crockett. I love reading old books while going on Google Earth, and looking up the places referenced in the book.
I particularly liked NARRATIVE OF THE LIFE OF DAVID CROCKETT, OF THE STATE OF TENNESSEE.written in 1834 by Crockett himself.
I was born and raised in a small, rural mountain town in upper east Tennessee, which was pretty cut off from the rest of the world. It was an all day trip on winding roads just to get to Knoxville, so we made that trip only two or three times a year.
I'm as native as you can get, but am fairly well educated and worked most of my life in a technical field. Have traveled the world and served in the USMC.
Not bad for a small town mountain boy native.
