Too many media want the easy - already written up - story....
Like, the BS Polls suggesting that Brad Bradford was tied and even ahead of Olivia Chow.
Too many media ran with it - any poll and press release - already done for them.
Based on the polling I had, Bradford was 10-points ahead with males over 54 years of age and only 3-points behind with females over 54 years of age.
For Chow to have won by 13-points, clearly means Chow had a much higher quality list of "identified supporters", with names, addresses & phone numbers - and they were able to get them out to vote to overcome the advantage Bradford had with 55+ voters.
So I tune in to @globalnewsto hoping to see some reporting and analysis of last night's municipal elections, and instead all I see is canned US reporting on Trump and Vance campaigning for the midterms. Total garbage. Over to 'How It's Made' instead. #cdnmedia

Two profs looked at Bradford's campaign, found complaints about filthy subways and unsafe parks, and bravely concluded: Trump. No rebuttals. No facts. Footnotes, presumably, pending.
Noticing the subway is disgusting is now a symptom of populism. Disagree? You're Trump.
If this is the rigour our universities celebrate, we have bigger problems than the subway. And if this is Chow's surrogate A-team, she's in trouble.
Go vote, Toronto.

Dear @oliviachow @ParthiKandavel
Can we not give a rest on residential parking tickets for a few day? Family & friends visiting for Christmas and can’t stay for 3-hours without getting a ticket? Come on? Why not give residents a break?
Thanks @oliviachow for the Thanksgiving gift. What a great way to welcome visiting family and friends. Where would you like my guests to park? My driveway is full. It’s illegal to park at our local school. Why can’t we have overnight permits issued? #topoli
Fireworks going off in my hood tonight. I told my kids it’s parents celebrating back to school. Big day tomorrow go to bed. Summer is over girls. #toronto #BackToSchool #backtoschool

He was a curmudgeon and a hell of a writer and a great broadcaster. I miss his commentaries. This one like most of his others, is just fantastic.
Andy Rooney landed on the beach of Normandy days after D-Day, 80 years ago today. In 2004, he shared a firsthand account of “a day unlike any other.”
“It’s hard for anyone who has been in a war to describe the terror of it to anyone who hasn’t,” he said. cbsn.ws/3yTkNzC.
Happening now. There is a father in the parking lot of Augusta National trying desperately to figure out how to make his car alarm stop honking. #beenthere #Masters2024 #themasters
