According to the dethroned beauty queen, the organisers told her to run separate social media accounts – one where she could voice her opinions and an ‘apolitical’ one for the contest. However, despite creating a second Facebook account, she kept getting complaints about her pro-Trump messages and criticism of the group Antifa on her personal page. Miss Nevada State 2019 winner Katie Williams has had her title revoked by the Miss America pageant organisers, and believes she lost her throne due to her conservative political views. Katie Jo Williams, a member of the US Army National Guards and a combat veteran, learned on 18 August that she’d lost the title and been banned from competing in the upcoming Miss America contest. In a statement posted on Instagram, she said the pageant coordinators told her via emails that she was “too political” to be involved, and that the only way to stay in the contest was to delete political posts from her Facebook page. However, she added, the organisers failed to address her requests to clarify what content they found to be in breach of their ‘No Politics’ rules. Williams has created a separate Facebook page for the pageant, devoid of political statements, but she claimed that the organisers continued to voice their disapproval in personal communications of what she was posting on her personal account. These posts, in her words, included a picture of herself wearing a red ‘Trump 2020’ hat as well as expressions of support for the United States and criticism of the leftist political organisation antifa. Williams had regularly received calls from the pageant director, Susan Jeske, but insisted that she would only communicate via email for the sake of her own safety. “I stopped taking your calls because every time you were on the phone with me you told me you agreed with my political opinions and then in writing would softly scold me for them,” she said in a letter to Jeske, according to screenshots she shared on Twitter. Williams has also published alleged screenshots of online exchanges with Jeske, which appear to show that the pageant director encouraged her to take pictures with President Trump and his son, Donald Trump Jr., while wearing the Miss Nevada sash and crown.

I don't disagree with the pageant. I think these kinds of events should be about their stated activities, not let anyone decide they want to create a platform for their own politics. For that matter, I'd like to see Hollyweird, the music industry, sports use that same standard. People don't want to see politics and don't want to know the politics of competitors. They just want their movies, music and sports. Not more politics being injected to absolutely everything in public life. It surprises me that people don't see this. Americans kinda hate politics and they rarely choose to have more of it mixed in with their entertainment.
You're wrong you should be a ableto have a personal life too. Nothing she did was wrong.
Does “having a personal life” mean having the right to unilaterally breech a written agreement [contract] and break the terms set forth in such agreement? How do you figure that when it is reported that Williams signed a ”legally binding written agreement” to keep her politics separate from her ”pageant social media page”. It is also reported that the pageant said that Ms. Williams acknowledged both verbally and in writing that she understood these rules before she was accepted into the pageant. It is further reported that the pageant stated that Williams was posting her Trump-related political content to the Ms. Nevada Facebook page which is strictly prohibited. Continued HERE. I ask you ever so kindly to please explain to me how you figure: “nothing she did was wrong.” I am sincerely interested in your rational.
There is no breach of the contract. Show me the part of the contract she broke. You can't it's you speculating what the contract says.
I will continue … I trust the following will address all three of your charges. ALL the pageant asked of Ms. Williams, in writing, is to keep separate social media accounts. (ie: Facebook) One is for politics where she can voice her own opinion as Katie Williams and the other is a new Facebook page for the pageant representing Ms. Nevada State 2019. None of this had to do with her personal political views. They are immaterial. She has her Personal Facebook page to voice her political views. She could be a President Trump supporter on her Personal Facebook page all she wants for everyone to read. However, the Ms. Nevada Facebook Page should be devoid of political content. ________________ The Ms. America Pageant is a No Politics pageant. It is in our Rules & Regulations as posted on the pageant website and therefore available to read before applying to the pageant. It is also included in our contracts and requires handwritten initials and signatures acknowledging that you have read and understood the pageants rules. Ms. Williams acknowledged both verbally and in writing that she understood these rules before she was accepted into the pageant. Nothing on her Facebook Page had any political statements at the time she was accepted into the pageant. The purpose for these Rules and Regulations is that the Ms. America Pageant does not want to be seen as endorsing any political candidate or political cause. Thru many emails starting in July she claimed she could not comprehend keeping pageant and politics separate on her Facebook pages. The pageant made many attempts to speak to her over the phone to try to resolve this issue. Many times we wrote to her to try to set up an appointment to have a telephone conference, all of which she consistently refuse to do. The pageant believes that a telephone conversation is a reasonable request and was willing to speak to her at any time that was convenient for her schedule. The pageant gave her a final deadline to edit the Facebook pages which she refused to do. This leads the pageant to believe that she is no longer capable of representing this pageant as Ms. Nevada State 2019, and she is no longer eligible to participate in the 2019 national pageant. Her title has been revoked. The pageant offered her a full refund on her entry fee and refund on one ticket that she purchased to the pageant after she fulfilled requirements of returning crown and sash and removal of the title Ms. Nevada State 2019 from all social media and the Internet. ________________ PAGEANT WEBSITE OF RULES AND REGULATIONS ________________ AGREEMENT HAND SIGNED BY KATIE WILLIAMS ________________ REVOCATION OF TITLE LETTER ________________ ________________ https://msamericapageant.com/page.php?groupingID=miscellaneous16
Nice document inclusion. The key phrase that sticks out is the one which declares MAP as the sole arbiter of acceptable conduct and participation and that there is no venue for appeal or for suing the pageant. I think it would be hard to get into court with a civil suit. No judge wants to wade into that by setting aside contractual obligations expressed in straightforward legalese. If only sports/movies/TV and other venues would embrace the same standard. I'm sick of the politics, especially liberal politics, being injected into everything. If you want to show your tits and ass in a swimsuit, then just do it. Spare us your political lectures and promotional branding nonsense. After all, we only cared about the tits and ass to begin with.
Those clauses are illegitimate and you can sue anyway.
You are expressing your personal opinion here. In reality you will find that when you try to sue after you have signed a “covenant not to sue” – you will quickly learn that the “suit in law" you desire to have heard in a court of law ”will never go before a court of law.” This is true since “covenants not to sue are used to settle specific legal issues "outside of the court system”.
Courts Say Man Can Sue Despite Signing Waiver By Avi Salzman https://www.nytimes.com/2005/12/04/nyregion/courts-say-man-can-sue-despite- signing-waiver.html You can always sue. You may not win but you can sue. Comprende?
https://www.nytimes.com/2005/12/04/nyregion/courts-say-man-can-sue-despite- signing-waiver.html I “comprehende” from reading more than enough of the Deckard posted articles that newspapers, other media lie by slanting their headlines – especially shit put out by the NY Times. Since I could not read the story directly, you made me work and it took me a while to get to the bottom of this. Yes, there was an exception in New York State where “if you've been injured due to negligent actions, you can sue – even if you signed a waiver.” Was Katie Williams “injured due to negligent actions” by the MAP? No. You showed me one exception – I will accept that, of course. I ask you to now show factual evidence that can ALWAYS sue after you have signed a covenant not to sue. Can you show me that …

Was Katie Williams “injured due to negligent actions” by the MAP? It could be argued that she was injured, emotionally and financially. They singled her out because she supports Trump. She didn't tell anyone to vote for Trump that I know of. Everything is political, or you can make that case. She could say they were being political because she just likes our country and the President. Nothing necessarily political about that.

Nothing she did was wrong.
A legally binding written agreement is an agreement which is valid and therefore enforceable. It means that the parties who have signed the agreement are expected to fulfil their obligations under the agreement. If they do not, they may be penalised. Although agreements do not have to be written to be legally binding, it is a good idea to have a written record of what you have agreed to. This minimises the risk of a dispute by ensuring you and the other party are on the same page. This article explains the requirements you need to satisfy to have a legally binding written agreement.

I’m sorry that it took longer than expected for me to get back to you. There is no breach of the contract.
Show me the part of the contract she broke.

Those [covenants not to sue] clauses are illegitimate and you can sue anyway.
Nope, they are not “illegitimate” – and – Nope, you cannot “sue anyway.” “A covenant ‘not to sue’ legally obliges a party that could initiate a lawsuit not to do so."
Perhaps you will better understand the fallacy of your personal opinion after you read: ”Covenant Not to Sue Defined”.
"The covenant is made explicitly between two parties, and any third party that wants to make a claim is legally allowed to do so. Covenants not to sue are used to settle specific legal issues outside of the court system. Parties may enter into this type of agreement to prevent a protracted, expensive lawsuit. In exchange for the covenant, the party that could seek damages may be provided with compensation or may be given assurances that the other party in the agreement will conduct a specific action."

Courts Say Man Can Sue Despite Signing Waiver By Avi Salzman
Upon going to your link, I could not read about the case because this was posted: Keep reading The Times by creating a free account or logging in.
So all that you furnished me was a HEADLINE. You can always sue. You may not win but you can sue. Comprende?
No, I don’t “comprende” – because you cannot ALWAYS sue.
