FedEx Goes to War Against the New York Times Over Hit
Piece Article - Releases Statement and Challenges the NYT
to a Public Debate


FedEx CEO challenges New York Times publisher to public
debate after tax story

FedEx CEO Frederick Smith has challenged the publisher of
The New York Times as well as the paper's business editor
to a public debate after the Times reported that the
company paid $0 in federal taxes in 2018.

[link to thehill.com (secure)]



Statement from Frederick W. Smith, Chairman and CEO of FedEx Corporation

The New York Times published a distorted and factually
incorrect story on the front page of the Sunday, November
17 edition concerning FedEx and our billions of dollars
of tax payments and billions of dollars of investments in
the U.S. economy. Pertinent to this outrageous
distortion of the truth is the fact that unlike FedEx,
the New York Times paid zero federal income tax in
2017
on earnings of $111 million, and only $30
million in 2018 — 18% of their pretax book income.

How FedEx Cut Its Tax Bill to $0

The company, like much of corporate America, has not made
good on its promised investment surge from President
Trump’s 2017 tax cuts.

YET ... their circulation numbers and advertising revenues keep rising even though the rest of the newspaper industry is collapsing.

WHY? Because Liberals nationwide do NOT care about the truth ... they only want made up politicized "news" that reinforces their existing beliefs. The NY Times is just catering to that by making up news that is fresh red meat for their readers even if there is no basis in fact for it.

Always amazes me how people buy into the BS they are fed relentlessly. Nothing but distraction to create an illusion, and in a few days time all forgotten. As believable as Epstein taking his own life in a cell.


2 Thessalonians 2:11-13
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth

But as another post implied...people are paying to turn off CNN at the airports. That would be a better indication that possibly the number of subscribers and ads to the NYP is bought and funded by ? I don't know anyone who reads it.

There is a certain well defined outfit whose very identity revolves around finding ways to not pay taxes they force upon others.
If you're special, one way you know it is you don't have to pay tax, that's what real or imagined royalty believes, ie taxes are for them to collect, not to Pat, that's for serfs and untermenshen

I have no problems with anyone or company paying 0 percent, the problem is that rate is not all aboard for everyone. Hell, if you make a million, you are charged percent 39.5 or so, property tax, sales, tax, shipping tax. God doesn't even ask that much.

God warned you idiots about a Human leader

1 Samuel 8:10-18

10 So Samuel told all the words of the Lord to the people who were asking for a king from him. 11 He said, “These will be the ways of the king who will reign over you: he will take your sons and appoint them to his chariots and to be his horsemen and to run before his chariots. 12 And he will appoint for himself commanders of thousands and commanders of fifties, and some to plow his ground and to reap his harvest, and to make his implements of war and the equipment of his chariots. 13 He will take your daughters to be perfumers and cooks and bakers. 14 He will take the best of your fields and vineyards and olive orchards and give them to his servants. 15 He will take the tenth of your grain and of your vineyards and give it to his officers and to his servants. 16 He will take your male servants and female servants and the best of your young men[a] and your donkeys, and put them to his work. 17 He will take the tenth of your flocks, and you shall be his slaves. 18 And in that day you will cry out because of your king, whom you have chosen for yourselves, but the Lord will not answer you in that day.”

FedEx is primarily an ex military-run company from the exec boardroom to the flightline, and they operate a critical service. Even the military comes to them for logistics advice. The SJW’s are SOL if they think they can win this one.
