After word got out, yesterday, that I had become a freelance Sun columnist and prospective Sun TV pundit, there was much gnashing of garments and rending of teeth on both sides of the spectrum. The right-wingers, committed free-speechers all, were enraged that a dissenting voice was being permitted a platform in a conservative paper. And the lefties were apoplectic that I (or anyone) would pay the Sun chain any heed.
Sigh.
I thought this editorial, in the Calgary Sun, should therefore be read by both sides. In it, my hometown Sun heartily endorses the lefty mayoralty candidate over the two right-wing ones. Perhaps it’s time to re-examine your biases, Righties and Lefties.
To wit: when media gets predictable, and represents only one side of the argument (cf. National Post), they don’t grow. And then they start to lose their audience.
Me, irritated: Why did they have to eliminate a lane on Dundas for a bike lane that no ever one uses???!!
Ten-year-old son: Oh, look, Dad’s turning into Rob Ford.
Everyone here looks like they write code for a hobby.
Anyhow, here’s the result when I did some name-association tests. These were all conducted in a highly-scientific manner, and are considered accurate, twenty times out of twenty.
I took a wrong turn, went up a darkened flight of stairs, and – whammo – these guys got me.
Just a hunch, but I suspect some heads are exploding in Ottawa, this morning. Hope so, anyway.
I’m at the Ontario Liberal Convention to give a few presentations today. There are lots of Ontario Libs here.
Before I got started, I wanted to give you a gander at the kind of stuff the Hudak staffers are sending around to our guys, using taxpayer-subsidized hardware. Pretty cocky bunch, eh?
I’d watch that, if I were them.
