Local TV stations are all over themselves covering the All Star game here in the ATL (well, Cobb County).
This morning, watching the NBC affiliate, I learned the 2021 game that was scheduled to be in Atl was cancelled due to Covid. All this time I was under the impression that it wasn't cancelled, that it was in fact moved to Denver as part of a knee jerk reaction from MLB after Georgia enacted some new voting laws. Y'all remember Smoking' Joe Biden referred to them as Jim Eagle laws? You know- the same laws that preceded the 2022 elections that had the highest level of minority turnout in Georgia? The same laws that are still in effect today.
I'm glad I turned to such a trusted news source that hits the basics of the story so well. I can be sure to count on them to cover much more nuanced issues.
