Can someone who disagrees with the article point to anything substantively wrong about it? Is there any reason to dismiss his criticisms of council meetings under the mayor, besides partisan loyalty to Nenshi?
People tend to jump on bandwagons. For years certain posters have been trashing the Sun and Rick Bell to no end so to some it simply becomes fact without even reading into it. Bell caters to his audience but that doesn't mean he's always wrong or out to lunch. You don't have to be a genius after all to pick out the faults of Calgary city hall. He does a great job at picking out Nenshi's faults but if you go through threads here over the years so you would see similar stuff written by posters so he's put it in one tidy article and it's hard for even the staunchest Nenshi supporter to deny the man fits the mold.
