Stimulation industry undermines to dump North Carolina over its unfair hostile to LGBT law


We're back with more aftermath from North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory's most loved new law, the unfair HB2. The most recent from Variety:

A+E Networks and 21st Century Fox may refrain from filming future projects in North Carolina if the state does not repeal a controversial law that bars local LGBT anti-discrimination ordinances.

The companies have stopped short, however, of withdrawing current projects from the state. [...] Fox indicated Wednesday that it would “reconsider” shooting future productions in North Carolina. A+E has ruled out future shoots in the state.


Plus, Turner Broadcasting:

The first season of TNT drama “Good Behavior” is currently shooting in the state. Turner has no plans to relocate that production, but indicated Thursday that it would keep future productions out of the state if the law remains in place.

“In the case of North Carolina, Turner is currently in the midst of production of one show which it will compete,” a company spokesperson said. “Turner will, however reevaluate doing further  business in North Carolina.”


Bonus for Braeburn Pharmaceuticals "reevaluating" whether to build a $20 million facility in NC.

And more state (Connecticut) and municipal (Chicago & Boston) travel bans to NC.


McCory circa Monday:

"I have not had one company say they're moving out of North Carolina," he said.
