The Starbucks logo is seen outside a coffee shop in New Yorks Times Square March 15th, 2007. The union busting company has plans to unveil two new drinks on Wednesday, the Wall Street Journal reported, as the Seattle company attempts to rejuvenate its coffee store business.

This is a fine example of how pathetic our main stream news has become when they give free media coverage to Starbucks, a #Union busting coffee company offering a new flavor of the month. Sadly, nobody in America seems to notice the demise of real news and the substitution of this idiocy. Starbucks Corporation #Starbucks MjL

Signs in the front of a Starbucks coffee shop.  The iconic US coffee chain has said it will shut most of its Australian stores within a week, having already taken the axe to hundreds of US outlets as an economic downturn bites.

The media will go to any length to avoid calling a recession (or depression) what it actually is. It is more than an “economic downturn” when people can’t afford a cup of Starbucks coffee. Starbucks Corporation #Starbucks MjL

Assistant manager Lindsey Pringle tosses a drink cup to a barista at a Starbucks, commonly referred to as the original Starbucks, in the Pike Place Market on May 29th, in Seattle. The first Starbucks cafe was located nearby in the early 1970s. Starbucks closed more than 8,000 stores nationwide early Tuesday afternoon in an effort to quell bad publicity to conduct anti-bias training, the next of many steps the company is taking to try to restore its tarnished image as a hangout where all are welcome.

In 2018, two black men who’d been arrested by racial profiling for sitting at a Philadelphia Starbucks without ordering anything settled with the company for an undisclosed sum and an offer of a free college education; they settled separately with the city for a symbolic $1 each and a promise to set up a $200,000 program for young entrepreneurs. #Starbucks
