This despite the building’s own policy<\/a> of not lighting the tower in support of “political figures and campaigns”:<\/p>\n “The Empire State Building also does not light for political figures and campaigns, for personal events such as birthdays, anniversaries or weddings, or for commercial events such as product launches.”<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/DanJoseph78\/status\/499239004509073408\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/KonkelMike\/status\/499289833987395584\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/TAGIII\/status\/499289992804724736\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/EFettmann\/status\/499293900264464384\n A suspicion based on a very sketchy hypothetical.<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/USA4Liberty\/status\/499300965611081728\n He’s probably happy about it too since the Democrats booed him at their last convention.<\/p>\n <\/p> Read more: http:\/\/twitchy.com\/2014\/08\/12\/true-colors-dnc-is-ok-for-empire-state-building-but-not-kids-with-cancer\/<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" http:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/MonicaCrowley\/status\/499288468812345344 The Empire State Building in New York City is known for lighting up in various color schemes to celebrate different people or events.
