Although most people can't or won't admit it, part of them likes seeing this kind of stuff in their newsfeed. They seek it out (see twitchy).
Nutpicking and ragebait get clicks and clicks = $$$. People are addicted to finding things to get worked up about and the media know it.

You forgot CNN, MSNBC, and of course, The Bulwark.  =D

"Good luck finding an outside contractor in any specialty who can assign a crew comprised entirely of LBGQT personnel."

Silly man, the entire heating/cooling/steamfitting industry has been LBGQT for decades, now......
I thought that was LSMFT . . .

I'm sure they are a large company with a contract and maybe for more places then just this campus with the same group so they are limited in what they can say. If someone pulls any kind of crap with me I fire them as customers on the spot. You should see their faces. But the customers always right. I get in my truck and say bye.

Politically, they will just push for LBGOT owned businesses so someone can get the contract, take 5%, and sub it to the same people who did it before.
