To be fair, this was really at the root of my problem.
Someone watching that process unfold and treating both with equal distaste is really odd.
One side has King basically asking for no financial risk for the Flames, asking the city to pay the costs of police presence, wanting all the revenue and leveraging a dying woman in the cause of gaining support on multiple occasions.
And then you have Nenshi who wants to get some benefit assertion for the city out of the project and who admittedly comes across poorly on the mic way too often.
Those really aren't equal and the consistent addressing as both sides as equally bad is, I think, very biased. This was pointed out several times by others as well, so this wasn't just noticed by myself.
