omg this is so messed up 
a newspaper getting paid by a company with a history of racist ads and then publishing it on the front page?! 
what kind of message does that send to their readers?! it's like they're giving a platform for hate speech and not caring about the consequences. and now Gannett is trying to downplay it by saying it was just a "misinterpretation" but we all know that's not true 
those dog whistles are loud and clear, folks. this is exactly why people don't trust the media anymore 
local newsrooms need to be protected from corporate greed and the interests of shareholders should never come at the expense of responsible journalism

. It's like, can't we all just get along? 
The fact that Gannett printed this ad without even questioning it is a huge red flag 
️. They need to seriously revamp their editorial process and prioritize responsible journalism over shareholder profits.
. That's just a classic move to avoid accountability.
the fact that bowersox floor center claimed their message got "misinterpreted" but later deleted their facebook page after backlash is just a clear attempt to cover up their racism 
OMG, I'm literally shaking my head right now... Can't believe a paper like that would even consider publishing something so racist 
.
. I mean, can't you see how ugly that ad looks? The font, the color scheme... it's like they threw together a mess without even considering how it would be received 
. And Gannett needs to get its act together, pronto 
. No more sacrificing responsible journalism for profit margins 
, but it's wild that a company could get away with runnin' an ad like this in the first place 
. It's like, what's next? Gannett needs to take responsibility for their actions and make sure this doesn't happen again 
It's just sad that ppl have to worry about this kind of stuff in their communities. We need more diversity and inclusion, not less 
. And let's be real, if you're lookin' for floor work done, you might wanna keep it movin' from Bowersox Floor Center 
. It's not just the fact that it was printed, but also the fact that it's been defended as "just an ad" and not taken seriously enough. News papers have a responsibility to hold up to scrutiny and report on issues that matter, not perpetuate hate speech.
. The outrage on social media is real and it's time for these organizations to take responsibility for their actions. They should be ashamed of themselves for trying to downplay the racist nature of the ad. Can't they see how it affects people's lives?
