tracker is often the first to know
when Best Buy, Walmart, Anton
line and other US stores will have
the Microsoft console back in stock.

Motors for namedropping his network to defend
against 'systemic
racism'
accusations
By Chauncey Alcorn
S
ean "Diddy" Combs is
accusing General Motors of name-dropping
his network to score points

criticized Corporate America
at-large.
"The same feet these companies use to stand with us
in solidarity are the same
feet they use to stand on
our necks," he added.
