Did they seriously not give the snitch the bounty? Can anyone provide official news story on this?

Iirc they never actually pay the reward in almost every reward poster for one reason or another.
That's hillarious. If this were a movie I'd call it bad writing. Heck almost any editor in the world would have it changed to a scene where the snitch is suddenly blinged the fuck out.
There usually needs to be a conviction before there's a reward.

...and all that came of the whole affair was a bunch of bad reviews for a McDonald's, which were promptly deleted by the corporation controlling all data.
No, there was a lot more that came of this (unless you're specifically referencing the snitching part).
- It's made business execs afraid.
- It's shown the working class how to have solidarity.
- It's been a rallying cry for how much the people hare the current system.
- It's given us a martyr.
- It’s taught the would be school shooters that they’ll get lots of positive attention for redirecting their targets towards those deserving. They’ll get labeled a folk hero, they’ll have people trying to send them money for their legal defense fund, they’ll get their name in the history books. They’ll get everything they ever wanted out of their act of violence.
And I'm sure there's more.

I never even thought of that. No more Columbines? Just more Luigis?
Based universe!
is there news source for "fuck right off about that reward, bud"?
It's an easy find. Nobody is literally saying fuck right off, but it's not a stretch to think this shithole society would screw the person over.
NYPD Crime Stoppers Rules: The NYPD part of the reward is given out through Crime Stoppers. To claim this part, people must have a unique reference number provided when they submit a tip through Crime Stoppers. Unfortunately, because the employee called 911 instead of using the Crime Stoppers hotline, they might not be eligible for this part of the reward.
What a fucking joke. Hope everyone learns the lesson here.
Mustn't let the poors get a foothold, they may improve their situation.
We all know that snitches get stitches, always. What you may not know (and Snitching Joe just found out) is that the stitches are sometimes metaphorical.
The owner class and their government muppets are flexing right now as if they want to inflame tensions.
Or are they not reading the room?
They have learned over decades that they can do whatever the fuck they please. They don't need to read the room, nothing is gonna happen to them anyway. Also, the public just voted their mascot into the White House for 4 years despite 34 convictions, so they are truly invincible and they know.
Wait where is is that the compensation will not be provided? This was the first time I heard this
He didn't tip off the right agency. AND the reward depends on a conviction, not an arrest. AND he gets a proportion of the reward depending on how instrumental his info was in the case being solved.
(AND the poor are just tools to those in power.)
Edit: or so I gathered.
Wooooow so because be called 911 instead of the feds he gets nothing..
... And of course they already said hours before the call they were "closing in" (they weren't)
Let this be a lesson to any other proles who think Big Brother is somehow on your side. They are not.
They will do and say anything they can to ensure they get what they want, and the rest of us lose. The system is not broken; it’s working as it was designed.
Next time keep your head down and your mouth shut.
