Sorry I’m out of the country so I heard about it yesterday on lemmy. With big organizations, it’s possible that like the district or region leader didn’t think it’d be a big deal and didn’t pass it on. Or hell, maybe one of them is a trumper and let it go. When corporate found out from the news they tried to do a PR cleanup. Could also have been slow then.
