Reuters Comes Out for Gay Marriage in Minnesota
Maggie Gallagher comments over at The Corner blog:
The news organization has officially come out opposing the Minnesota Marriage Amendment which simply defines marriage as one man and one woman. They pretend this is a business decision with no other implications.
“Thomson Reuters has 7,900 employees in Minnesota. In the e-mail, company officials also noted that the company’s position is a “business decision” and that “as a news organization, Thomson Reuters is dedicated to upholding our Trust Principles and does not advocate political or religious positions.”We believe the Minnesota Marriage Amendment, if passed, would limit our ability to recruit and retain top talent,” the e-mail said. “For this reason, we do not believe that the Amendment would be good for Thomson Reuters or the business community in the state.”
The marriage amendment does not change Minnesota’s current law, and nine out of ten of the top states for business (according to a new CNBC ranking) have marriage amendments.

Reuters has always been pro gay this not surprise. They are biased and push their agenda through their through t their so called news stories.
"Thomson Reuters is dedicated to upholding our Trust Principles and does not advocate political or religious positions.”
Translation:
We know this may just confirm what many people were already starting to think; that Reuters is an agenda driven rag hiding under a mask of impartiality, but things are starting to look desperate now so we have no other choice but to risk exposure out of a sense of solidarity with all those who we worked so hard with in order to impose the homosexual agenda upon the free people of this nation.
At least Reuters admits what we all suspected: that homosexuals hold a disproportionate number of jobs in the media and are responsible for all of the pro-homosexual coverage we witness almost every day.
Infiltration into the top jobs of organizations that can sway public opinion is a repeated tactic by homosexuals. Same thing they did at the APA when they forced the declassification of homosexuality as a mental disorder. Same thing they're doing in the Episcopal church.
"Thomson Reuters is dedicated to upholding our Trust Principles and does not advocate political or religious positions."
So their explanation for taking a political position is that they don't take political positions.
”We believe the Minnesota Marriage Amendment, if passed, would limit our ability to recruit and retain top talent
You can recruit any talent you want. No one in the state is stopping you. How we reaffirm marriage has nothing to do with your internal policies. This is a direct lie as it hinders nothing.
we do not believe that the Amendment would be good for the business community in the state.
So how would increased health care costs as happened in MA be good for the business community.
Are they ever going to give up the "marriage amendments are bad for business" lie?
#5.....MA health costs increased? Really?
My premium was just lowered by 55%.
Thousands (tens of thousands, or more) insured MA residents just received checks averaging $200 for reimbursements from major insurers for spending more money than allowed on 'management'.
Get your facts correct before you post!!!
