Company officials said after the initial publication of the story that the documents pertained only to one subsidiary of Michels Corp,\u201d the outlet added to the top of the story.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The headline was changed from \u201cMichels Corp. does not have Black employees in management positions, according to public documents,\u201d to \u201cLack of diversity at a Michels Corp. subsidiary raised Equal Employment Opportunity concerns for Illinois contract.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the company, minorities or women actually make up about 17.3% of middle or upper management positions throughout the company. As conservative outlet Wisconsin Right Now <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wisconsinrightnow.com\/2022\/11\/04\/black-managers-at-michels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pointed<\/a> out, black people in various management positions can be found by searching LinkedIn.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The diversity \u201cconcerns\u201d were publicized by the Left-leaning SEIU Wisconsin State Council, a state lobbying group.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A source close to the Michels campaign told The Daily Wire that the Journal Sentinel had \u201cegg all over their face\u201d thanks to the story and subsequent correction.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Journal Sentinel took a hit from the SEIU and the Democrats and ran with it without a shred of scrutiny in spite of being given evidence that it wasn\u2019t true. They rightfully have egg all over their face as a result. It\u2019s no wonder trust in legacy media is reaching new lows every day,\u201d the source said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not the first time that the Journal Sentinel has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/midterm-exam-all-the-latest-on-the-2022-elections-part-one-3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">faced criticism<\/a> over its coverage of Michels. In a story <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.ph\/rjcWb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">published<\/a> at the end of August, a headline declared that Michels, a Christian, donated to \u201canti-gay\u201d and \u201canti-abortion\u201d groups through his foundation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The story centered on Michel\u2019s donations to crisis pregnancy centers as well as Christian churches that adhered to a biblical view of marriage and gender.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor four years, they turned a blind eye to the consequences of Evers\u2019 many failures and are now all in as accomplices in his desperate campaign to demonize me, my company, my family, and now even our personal charitable giving,\u201d Michels said at the time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Recent polling has shown Michels and incumbent Democrat Gov.
