Sprint put another finger in the eye of the region's economy by their late Friday afternoon announcement that 400 New Mexicans lost their jobs. That late PM announcement is always done before a weekend in order to lessen the media attention over Saturday and Sunday. It is corporate America at its worse and if I had a Sprint phone I would dump them. And of course, where was the Governor and her minions as this happened? Were there any entreaties from them to reconsider? Did the Governor hop in the jet to go to Sprint HQ and camp out in the lobby to get them to give a reprieve? Hell no, she sold the Jet and she doesn't give a shit. She is busy with divisive and unimportant issues like driver's licenses.
And when will Mayor Berry and the media start paying attention to the upcoming franchise renewal for Comcast to provide services to this city? Will anyone pay attention to the way this Corporate monster treats the population on internet prices? What kind of sweetheart deal has been done to keep this in stealth mode? Will anyone ask? Where is the Journal on this? Maybe a business reporter could do some comparisons around the west to see how we are faring in this non competitive market.

If this were a FB post I'd hit :like" ten times
They are busy trying to keep immigrants from getting drivers licenses and suing over the CHI St. Joeseph ads. One thing you can count on- they are consistent in their pettiness and failure to focus on what matters!
