Release of the data probably wasn’t approved by the Minister of Propaganda. The General Secretary concluded it didn’t adhere to the party line: “It’s a great day in South Carolina!”

No surprise here. Information control is the mark of an authoritarian regime.

Why is the government involved in trying to help tourism-related businesses (hotels, restaurants, etc.) get customers? Aren’t private businesses supposed to to get their own customers?

Rather than worrying about the availability of data from SCPRT, you should question the need for its very existence.

Hell, if we are going to use public funds to help private businesses get customers, why stop at tourism? Why not start a government program to help market dry cleaners in North Augusta and car dealers in Rock Hill? I also heard that there’s a pawn shop in Dillon that could use some help.

I wonder if the tourists saw the information on Myrtle Beach being the most polluted beach on the East Coast? And I am sure that is not on the SC Tourism data base either.

This highlight by Mr. Folks is a classic example of how public information is NOT proactive. Good follow-up…
