Sad giving story of white privilege prominent play

August 21, 2019 12:00 am • Last Updated: August 21, 2019 6:04 pm

Sad that the editors of The Day should give precedence to a story about the white privilege enclave of Groton Long Point, "A who's who in Groton Long Point," front page on Aug. 18, over a news story where an international conglomerate blackmails its employees to attend a Donald Trump rally. It was disguised as an announcement about the construction of a petrol-chemical plant, "Workers paid extra to attend Trump talk", page A3.
