Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
As we reported yesterday, a spokeswoman for the state Department of Economic Security told us that, despite what Chewie had reported, her cafeteria was Bible-thumper accessible. (She didn’t use that exact phrase, of course).
Today, Sonoran Alliance writes in an unsigned post that the incident — in which someone allegedly told a Bible group that their lunchtime meeting was prohibited — actually occurred in the Department of Revenue’s cafeteria.
So we called Sean Laux, DOR public information officer. He checked with the building’s cafeteria management and the DOR operations director.
“This incident never occured here,” Laux says emphatically.
Next, we’ll probably find out the alleged incident actually occurred in the cafeteria of the Saudia Arabia Ministry of Islamic Affairs.
Or maybe on “Chewie’s” home planet.
