The register didn’t do anything wrong and the guy handled it perfectly. Only thing wrong that happened was Busch pulling support and people’s over the top reactions. Way bigger things going on in this world to actually be outraged by.
Weather they did anything wrong is probably debatable, my question is, what was the end game here? What was the purpose of reporting this right before the donation process was ending? Was their goal to get that money taken away from kids with cancer?
If the Register was so hell bent on proving that as a 16 year old, his quoting a TV show on social media made him a bad person, then can't they hold off on that until the donation process is all over with? What did it do to benefit anyone involved, the kids, the hospital, AB, Venmo? He didn't have to do any of this, he could have just kept the money people gave him for beer and left it at that. I mean really, what was the purpose of the, "Hey, just thought you should know Carson is really a bad person."
Yes, Carson is getting publicity out of this, but at the end of the day, the money is going to kids with cancer. The idea that no one at the Register bothered to think, "Well, this could put that money in jeopardy, is what really bugs me. What if AB and Venmo pulled their donations, would the Register have still done the right thing?
