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.

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.

I try not to raise my voice during interviews, but I felt the line of questioning by @CBCNews here was totally off. We are trying to do the right thing by calling on civilians to evacuate, yet get lectured on humanity.

See, @CBCnews? Actual *reporting* of a story is not rocket science. Why didn't you review and report on the tapes like this actual journalist did?

This is the final major poll before the vote. Saunders is fading away. I am calling on all conservative and centre-right voters to unite behind me — the candidate with momentum — to stand up for this great city that we love. Together, we can win this and stop Olivia Chow.
