Alpha News gets under legacy media's skin by reporting FACTS!
The irony is that the Star Tribune is part of the Twin Cities' DFL protection media. They didn't report on the 8647 story. Instead, they reported on the newspaper that reported the story. That's what you do when you're protecting the DFL. Frankly, Bring Me the News fits into the inconsequential category.
Let's dig into Alpha News's reporting, which was done by Jenna Gloeb. the subtitle said "The crop art was entered into a public competition and displayed at the Minnesota State Fair for thousands of visitors to see. The State Fair itself displayed the artist's name and city of residence alongside the artwork." Here's the picture of the art:
Then there's this:It also included the artist’s name, Tamara Sawyer, and city of residence, St. Paul, which fair organizers displayed directly underneath the artwork.Gloeb didn't dox Sawyer. Ms. Sawyer either put her name on the art or the State Fair put Ms. Sawyer's name on the entry.
Gloeb also noted that "Social media accounts subsequently pointed to payroll records showing a Tamara Sawyer has worked for the state for more than a decade." Whether this was a prank by a state employee or if it's a threat at President Trump or something else entirely is up to someone else to determine. What I'm able to determine is that Ms. Gloeb did a nice job of reporting the facts Joe Friday-style.
