Xerox on EBT issue: "power outage during a routine maintenance test caused the temporary glitch" BS!

3. "...as shoppers swept through the aisles at two stores and bought as much as they could carry"

I wonder why CBS didn't mention that the "shopping sprees" with EBS Food Stamp cards could have only been related to FOOD purchases, and that alcohol and a lot of other stuff aren't even a part of that. The way that the article is written, it would lead one to believe that the people in these stores were buying merchandise like Tee Vees and video cameras.

Sounds to me like someone at CBS wrote an intentionally sensational story with the intended purpose of getting people to click on it so that they would be "forced" to watch the advertising pollution that preceded the story. On my screen, the ad began playing without my even clicking on it. All I did was open up the site and try to read the printed words.

I wonder who got rich off of that assault against our senses? Whoever it was, I wish a pox upon them.
