You know who had the best day thanks to Roseanne

[NightWatcher]

The CEO of Starbucks.

Nobody has said shit about Starbucks closing for racial sensitivity training since Rosie broke.

1. I was gonna say "Scott Pruitt" had a pretty good day, but yeah I guess SBucks did as well - ! nt

[RockRaven]

2. LOL

good call.

3. I think Starbucks would prefer their actions get talked about

Being ignored is the opposite of what they needed PR wise.

They went big to stomp on the negative publicity surrounding the arrests.

4. Starbucks had a rogue employee

I certainly don’t think racism was a part of their corporate culture.

5. MSNBC had a whole hour

on race tonight. It was meant to coincide with the Starbucks training. There were segments about it with people who assisted in forming the training and clips of the CEO and others talking about what should be included. It was good TV.

6. I was thinking Eric Greitens

7. Timing could not have been better

8. I heard about Starbucks on NPR. Didn't hear about Roseanne on NPR

They may have mentioned Roseanne while I was in the store, but I heard the news twice during All Things Considered. I was running errands.

9. I have heard a lot about Starbuck's today, but all positive about their efforts

anticipating that today's training will be step #1, but more to come.

10. Starbucks WANTED attention for what they were doing
